Colour Blindness

[Jamesdavid3]

my mate has a type of colour blindness, he only see heat and warmth in peoples bodies, hes describes it as the Predator movies.

Very impresssive!

What, he sees infra-red?

That'd be cool but possibly impractical...

peanut butter is bright green, people say its a tan colour but its green to me, same with caucasian skin thats green.

and i`m sure some people will think its because i didn`t learn the colours when i was younger.

Nice! That's pretty amazing.

It is an interesting thought though, we learn our colours by association - the sky is blue, the grass is green, the orange is - uh - orange. If we have a skew in our colour perception and the grass looks orange, who's to say you're not actually just seeing a green orange, and the grass is still green for you. Maybe your leaves are orange! Uh!

Hence this might be why people would also look 'green' to you, as we're just a very pale orange colour, innit?

Oh, I have a headache...

The colour blindness image test will tell you if it's physical or a learning issue - if you're not seeing a 5 in that picture test for example then it's physical.

Easily tested tbh.

25. 29
45. 56

If I had any colour blindness I'd be worried - need ma accurate colours!

I was reading earlier on Google that a policeman succesfully brough a case against the Police force for sex discrimination for taking him off active duties based on the fact more men suffer from colour deficiency than women

i always thought women carried the gene, but where never effected by it?

btw the PC term for it nowdays is Colour Vision Deficiency

I thought the PC term was "eye mental"

I get scuppered same way as you with the blues/purples and whatnot... its a real PITA sometimes, specially at work
"What colour top did he have on?"
"ummmm... well... its either..."

I only see 25 and 56, and 56 is a tough one to see.

I only see the 25, and can make out a few bits of the 56, so can sort of see where the 56 is, but only because i know it's 56

There's a T shirt you and I need to avoid... its got one of those colourblind test things on it, and I cant see anything on it. Showed it to my wife and she burst out laughing... apparently it says **** the colourblind on it

from what i remember it wasnt association with things (sky, grass etc) i was taught with cards with colours on them
