But your red is like... a red, right?

Is it bad that this terrifies me??

I kinda want to trade eyes with someone for a day. Just for some perspective.

This reminded me of the book "The Giver"
Like when the little shit started to get all horny only because the girl's hair was red. No?

I've wondered this for years. So, what if everyone has the exact same favorite color, but we all call it by a different name? Get it?

I wanna hear how people hear them selves since we sound different than what we hear as our own voice

And see others how they see them selves in the mirror

I've always wondered this! Makes sense for when people wear colours that just don't match but don't see any problem with it!

Looking through someone else's eyes would probably feel like being high, then.

Okay you guys, let us test this out. To my eyes, yellow is a bright neon color. Red is more of a darker color. How do you guys see it?

Everyone's photo receptors in our retinas CAN be different. But the only colors we would see different are red, green, and occasionally blue. So were all fine. My purple is still yours.

Ooh, I learned about this in chemistry.

That's bullshit I'm afraid. Colours correspond to different wavelengths of light and that is what the receptors detect. Red is always a certain range of wavelengths, like blue is always a certain range of wavelengths. The receptors convert these wavelengths via reactions with photopigment in the retina and this forms a certain, specific electrical pulse signal sent to the brain, and due to the fact that everyone's (humans at least) photoreceptors are identical, the nerve impulses created will also be the same (same frequency). When these pulses reach the visual cortex, they are converted into the perception of colour in the brain. Each wavelength of light produces a consistent nerve impulse frequency between people, as seen in brain EMG studies. This is a very brief descritpion of the process, but in conclusion we all see colours the exact same way. The only difference may be between men and women; who can see more shades of red than men, but it is still just red.

Thank you for spelling "colours" right

And what if that's why people have "different" favorite colors, but in reality they are the same color in reality, just different to others.

It makes sense but
WHAT

Vsauce

I have always thought this, but I thought I was the only one! Glad im not.

No becuz y duz everybody know that brown is dull becuz if they see it as yellow they would think it is not dull

people were stupid 2 years ago
