Displaying text color in postbit?

[Max Taxable]

Playing around with custom profile fields, installing the ability for users to choose their gender. It works, but I think I want a postbit template conditional for making it display blue if they chose Male, and pink if they chose female.

Right now it displays like this:



Here's the bit from the postbit template, where we're calling this up:

<vb:if condition="$post['field12']"><dt>Gender</dt> <dd>{vb:raw post.field12}</dd></vb:if>

Any ideas? I want it to go more like "if gender =1 then blue and if gender =2 then pink"
