1. They’re not too expensive if you make ’em yourself. I guarantee that a few bolts of really good fabric are a lot less expensive than a really good coffee table book.
2. If you don’t want pink, pick another shade of rose. Dusty red. Salmon orange. Any sunrise color you want.
3. If you’re too manly to hate pink, you’re too manly to wear violet. And yet, you wear that, don’t you? (Unless you’re some kind of blue vestment wimp.)
4. If you don’t like showing the Lord’s dawn coming and lightening the unrelenting violet gloom of Lent, you are not thinking and feeling with the Church. You probably kick puppies, too.

That was the indefinite “you” modifying “Laetare Haters”, and thus not directed at Jeff or any of you reading this.
I will say that my priest at school usually wears pink/rose for Laetare (and Gaudate) Sunday, but this year we had tragedy on campus and his choice to stick with the violet he wears every other day of Lent was wise.
