Women wear more clothing and accessories in red or pink when they are ovulating. This subtle, or not so subtle, instinctive behavior reflects a mating signal from females to males. No one has developed an app yet for women to track their ovulation to their clothing color choices, but wouldn’t it be intriguing if women could track their prime fertility time based on when they tend to reach for red or pink items in their wardrobe? Research has shown that red and pink are the colors of sexual attraction and have found that this color driven mating signal crosses different cultures. Pink and red signal sexual blush and willingness to mate. Do men act on this color as a mating signal? Yes, according to researchers… Men notice the bright red or pink attire and are attracted to women in red heels, a red dress, red bikini, etc.

The next time you reach for red panties or a red scarf, think about where you are in your menstrual cycle and whether or not you might be ovulating. Red or pink could just be an impulse color to brighten a dreary day or feel sexy, but it could also mean you’re ovulating and are in the mood to have a few vagina adventures!
