You can see more colors I guess? Like a lobster.

But colorblindness is much more prevalent in males! It just adds another dimension to the issue!

Well you see. Non-binary people see in black and white colorblind. They can't perceive color, unlike men who are red-green colorblind.

I have a legit degree in this, see?

(Shows degree made with crayons)

actually humans who are colourblind usually it just means they can't distinguish cerain colours , they still see colours! the ones that don't see colours at all it must be really hard to distinguish stuff...

one time I showed a picture of a festival of sorts of where I lived growing up and everyone wears very courful stuff men and women (men wear pink ...etc no problem despite been a conservative place which really shows that we think we are open and modern when we are not really)..... the guy laughs and tell me how there poor people don't know how to dress.... yikes. idi0t!

I was thinking more of the monochromatic variant unlike the red-green colorblind

But it's funny seeing how people don't realize they're colorblind until later in life

yeah ... I think it depends on the colours for people who realise it late.

there is a famous egyptian author that is blind , in one of his books he describes the moment he realised he was actually different than his siblings aka blind ...
