I am fascinated by this subject. My DH of eight years is red/green color blind. There is informative info on the internet which has helped me learn how he sees color. My DH helps me pick out fabric. A lot depends on how light reacts with the color. He often tells me certain things are a pretty blue... I usually let him know it is hot pink. I know that blue is part of the make-up of hot pink which is what he picks up on. He sees beautiful sunsets but in different colors than I do... usually he sees all the yellows/golds. I don't know any females that are color blind. Most literature I have read says it mostly runs in men.

Just this last month we picked out a green color for the exterior of our home. We started out by testing a blue but the way the light shown on it, it looked drab to him. So, we went for this green. It looks great to him. I watched the colors dispensed into the paint cans. Even though there was some red and some yellow, mostly there was blue pigment and lots of white.
