Boys vs Girls

[daeva_neesan]

A fun fact that happened me at work when dealing with a suspicious baggage:

--Looks like the descriptive skills of males are seriously lacking! It's ok to mistake a scarf for a foulard (ugh-- Not really, but--) but PURPLE with PALE PINK D: ?!

At first I thought that it was me-- We girls are probably too sensitive to colours and such. So I asked to another co-worker:
And ok-- It's not me.

--Aaah, probably the most of you don't are but-- I'm posting Sakurazo over Smackjeeves too.
So you can check the porn without getting an account over y!g :3 !

Everyone knows that real men only recognise the basic eight colours, plus the beer colour. :D Since I'm hardcore I can also recognise magenta, but don't ask me to differentiate between magenta and fuchsia. :D

Magenta is pinker, fuchsia is purpler :D
Also, Magenta is usually recognized as primary red :3

Had you ever browsed through the Colors pages on Wikipedia..? I could spend hours over them, looking at all the pretty fancy tones *_* !

[m3n747]

I did - and both fuchsia and magenta are #FF00FF. :D

And speaking of Wikipedia, colours and scarves, here's a pretty disturbing thing. XD

Ahah, I knew about that particular code (how I couldn't!) but not the details on the colors XD
--Did you see what Magenta stands for XD ?

Also, I find the use of brown and yellow particularly fitting X''D

[m3n747]

Yeah, I did - I can't begin to understand how could anyone associate such a nice colour with this particular fetish. XD

*checks his own handkerchief*

Turns out I like mutual masturbation, cock and ball torture, and have few limits. Damn, I suddenly feel like I should quickly get myself a new handkerchief in a nice light blue, robin egg blue or navy blue. XD

I'll go with lavender to look appealing to the gays.

X'DDDDD

ah, "foulard" is a word that does not get used enough. not in the US, anyway.

[tomoe-daeva.livejournal.com]

What, you call it "scarf" too XD ?

Non esattamente: gli architetti e i grafici riescono a riconoscere una grande varietà di colori anche se sono maschi, per motivi puramente professionali.
Ad esempio a lavoro esprimiamo le varie tonalità di grigio con "tutti tre", "tutti sei" e così via.
Ma ammetto che nella vita di tutti i giorni specificare la differenza tra viola e rosa pallido è abbastanza inutile, come tra "foulard" e "straccio".
E poi nel tuo lavoro i colori più importanti sono quelli del filo rosso, quello blu e quello verde.
Taglia quello blu, Dae.
