Non black umbrellas are cheaper. Women can get away with playing with
nice (or even funky) colors. Women are smart enough to get nice,cheap
umbrellas and convince the planet that it is OK. Men, get up your
courage! I (a femme) had a black umbrella that cost 20 bucks ( I worked
in a conservative law firm in NYC). It turned inside out and broke a
rib just as fast as the buck fifty specials!
