    Women have more ability to perceive colors due to physical differences. Link

    Edit: guys the image is to give you an idea of what it’s like. Read the article. There is an actual observed, measurable statistically significant difference in color perception.

      That’s just saying colorblindness is more common in men, and tetrachromacy is more common in (maybe exclusive to?) women. It’s still really rare tho (estimated 2-3% in that link)

      speaking of tetrachromacy, listen to the Polygondwanaland album by King Gizzard And The Lizzard Wizard

        Exclusive to women, as it’s a rare mutation that requires two X chromosomes.

        There could be a rare, rare case of someone with XXY chromosomes also getting it, but that would be two very rare human conditions hitting at once.

      This is utter bollocks. The implication here is that I shouldn’t physically be able to tell the difference between any of the colours in each group

        Semi pro chiming in here: the infographic took an idea and ran the wrong way with it. Women are more sensitive to color, but it has to do with the context. They pick up more subtle colors without direct comparison. Its not that men can’t see the difference between lavender and piriwinkle when they’re next to each other, they’re just more likely to think their the same color if viewed sepparately.

        It’s also worth noting that around age 35, both sexes lenses have yellowed enough that there’s no notable difference.

      I don’t think anyone without color blindness would say any two colors on that drawing are the same color.

        Show, don’t tell. The author also broke that rule in Panel 5 with “sex change occurs sounds” written off to the side. We see the 𝓶𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬 𝓫𝓾𝓫𝓫𝓵𝓮. Clearly, that means the sex change occurred in the context of the setup. We get it, dude.
