there's been a new study done that shows that men and women DO perceive colors differently, and women "see" them more accurately. more men than women are colorblind, as well. (women tend to have a more acute sense of smell, as well--probably goes back to the days when it was up to "us" to sniff the game to make sure it was edible, back in the cave days...) interesting that color really is in the eye of the beholder, and that some of the beholders --can't! my uncle had to have my aunt hang appropriate ties on the hangers with the shirt, tie, and suit, so he didn't look ridiculous when he went to work or church...
