Looking at these color assignments, I am still convinced that the nerds
who came up with them were colorblind--or at least had only one X
chromosome.
(The stereotype of men seeing fewer colors than women has a kernel of
truth. The genes that distinguish between red and green are on the X
chromosome, so if one of those genes goes bad in a chromosomal male,
there is no backup gene. It's why men are red-green colorblind so much
more often than women.)
