Where does the phrase “We’re all pink on the inside” come from?
Historically speaking, I’ve heard the phrase “We’re all pink on the inside” many times, but a Google search mostly brings up results about Pink, the artist. It’s a clever saying, and I’ve always wondered who originally came up with it. Does anyone know its origin?

Well i remember it from Employee of the month with Dane Cook and Jessica Simpson
Zack: Were all pink on the inside...
Vince: Like vaginas!
[awkward pause]
Vince: [cough]
And Carrie Fisher used it in her book Surrender the pink.1990
The title term, surrender the pink, is a colloquialism pertaining to male Տҽ×ual advances to a female. It comes from the phrase, "They're all pink on the inside."
This novel, like most of Fisher's books, is semi-autobiographical and fictionalizes events from her real life. It is said to be loosely based on her short marriage to singer Paul Simon.
