I remember reading somewhere that women are better at colour distinction than men.
I think that's more of a stereotype, how men describe colours in layman's terms and women use more complex, specific terms (like "tangerine" and "orange" - okay, maybe that was a bad example, like "lime" and "bright green" - what I'm getting at is that men see colour and women see citrus fruit)

Usually they are. Apparently this is just a trait leftover from the stone age/prehistoric man. We were hunter gatherers, with men being more the hunters and therefore developing better spacial awareness, higher muscle to fat ratio, amongst other things... whereas women were largely more gatherers, where distinguishing by two slightly different shades of red berry meant either delicious dinner or poisoning.
That's the gist of it. I read that a long time ago so I could be wrong, although thinking about it I probably know about 4 times as many guys who wear glasses/contact lenses than I know girls who wear them.

I scored a 21 using the foolproof strategy of "Do they look similar? I think so. Ah, fuck it, let's go with it." Works every time.

I don't know how to measure 'hue' well, so I changed 2 and then gave up.
EDIT: Okay, tried again, and got 56. Not that great.

I'm on a laptop now, so I only did two bars before I got tired of it, maybe I'll try again on my desktop.

On the part where the bars show your ability to differentiate between colours I had almost perfect on the two bars I did : D
But I didn't touch the last 2.

might not believe me but I got a perfect, booya! I know I see color a lot, I know it sounds cheesy but since I did shrooms a few times my color perception has gone way up. Every time I see the sky I'm amazed, its just so got damn blue!

I got a 27.

What exactly do those bars mean though, they show where hue discrimination is low, what the hell does that mean? My bars were highest in the yellow-green section, whatever that means.
