Got my wife a pink Bersa Thunder for Christmas.

Know why? She doesn't feel as apprehensive about shooting it, won't touch my Colt .45 because heavy and black and scary. They kick about the same since the Colt is much heavier.

As I said in another comment, my kids got a lesson on guns that look like toys. Hell, 2 of mine are Tiffany blue. (It matches my kitchen, OK?)
