If a guy can identify colors....

[sillymofo]

I.E. magenta vs purple, aqua vs blue, teal vs green.... etc. Is he considered "girlie man" or "metro"?

Edited for clarification.

Cuz most guys would see only the 7 colors of the rainbow...

 

[imported_Nail]

Those are colors. Eggshell, mahogany, strawberry, and coffee are not.

And it's purple, not violet. :|

 

[futuristicmonkey]

wtf is wrong with green?

 

[PingSpike]

Real men can only see the colors of beer, black and white, blood red and boobies.

 

[Anubis]

no because thoes are real colors

tope, beige and mavue are fake colors

 

[EvilYoda]

I'm quite the metro...but genetically colorblind between close shades, so how does that work out then?

You're just a "confused" metro....

 

[PanzerIV]

You can count me out because thanks to my color blindness I can't tell what the hell most colors are correctly anyway. It's really a PITA but what can I do about it but live with it.

what about megabyte magenta?, am i metro for being able to identify that? All kidding aside, i dont think someone would be considered metro, for god sakes you listed green, if a man cant recognize green he must be retarded not metro!!

Green? Voilet?

Don't bring ROYGBIV into this!

 

[imported_Nail]

I can recognize red, green, blue, cyan, yellow, magenta, and black.

 

[Modeps]

I guess I'm metro then.

[BigJ]

Real men are color blind!

 

[Leejai]

sounds like a case of color vs. marketing....

imo, it's all the damn same thing...red is red...dark red/light red, whatever...(i know the shades of color do actually differ), but as for most of the names we find on paint cans, ietc....the naming convention is all marketing....

i saw we drop calling them by their color and start calling them by their pantone code....

 

[gigapet]

so if a male can identify shades of a color by name they are gay or metro.........

:roll:

Well let's see...magenta is part of the CYM set so its recognizable and teal was in starcraft so I know what that is. Aqua...eh not really sure
Does that make me a metro?

 

[JDub02]

If you can identify more than 8-bit colors, you're either a woman or gay.

 

[DrPizza]

ROY G BIV, well, almost... wtf is "indigo"?? And, it's purple, not violet.

There are 6 colors, plus black and white.

Now, to decrease my masculinity points, "mauve" rhymes with "grove" It's NOT "mawv"
