I can see true magenta. And it ain't pink.
How do you know?
Are you one of those 4-cones people?
Even they see it as a pinkish-purpley-red.
It's not that.
This made me learn about tetrachromamcy and now I feel like Tetrachromamcer should be a class in D&D.
Cliffhanger
Wait a second people genuinely think magenta is pink?
Commonly it's thought of as between red and purple. I don't know where pink comes from.
I assume it's because of "hot pink" which now I type it sounds like a euphanism.
euphemism ? or is that a different word
