    I think I read something before about how women’s eyes are better at differentiating colors but men’s eyes are better at detecting movement.

    Maybe that’s why I’m always like “how did you not find this thing, it’s sitting right there!” all the time.

      I think it’s a cultural thing. In uni we had to learn how to titrate to figure out concentrations and we had to look out for sudden color changes to figure out the concentration of a solution. Well, I had a professor who’d constantly revel in the fact that men often had trouble with this, but in a toxic way.

      I know that women are constantly exposed to different tones and shades from using makeup. And I understood the assignment because I had studied some graphic design earlier and had to tell colors apart. Whet she didn’t get was that I only needed a color reference all along! I literally did not know what color it was supposed to be and she didn’t bother to explain lol
