I think I may have seen red once when I had a concussion, but I can’t prove it.
Why do you think lust gets associated with red? I have evolutionary biology reasons in mind personally.

Close your eyes. Press your finger into your eyelids lightly and apply gently pressure to your eyes. You should see red.
Does this work with colorblind people? We need a doctor. #[4]
Also if you shine a flashlight directly into your eye for 10 seconds, then close your eyes, there would be a red after image.
If you see a color that's new to you, that's red.
👀. I suppose it would depend on the color blindness but if protanopia with them red cones shot may yield nada.
For all smart 👁️ 👁️ questions I consult #[5].
You’re exactly right! 🎯 I guess you could try to describe red to that person but wondering if the millions/billions of touch points over the years associating red with certain things wouldn’t really make sense to someone with protanopia.
Just needed them red cones…😓
It’s an interesting problem.
It’s also amazing how much humans can overcome. Some of my work involves color coded wiring. It was years before I was tested for color blindness, and when I was diagnosed we had to figure out how it was I was able to do wiring so well.
I had to explain to my then employer, that red dye on wires was shinier than brown, and that’s what I thought red looked like on wires.
I also understand there is some connection between dyslexia and color blindness.
100%. Same with stop lights - even if you can’t see certain colors well people can still tell that there is a difference, at least in hue (or in your case shininess!). As long as they associate correctly, like the red one, however perceived, as being stop, they can adapt.
I always thought it was cool that when we test color vision the first page (the 12 usually) is actually a decoy to be able to see if people are trying to fake the tester for some secondary gain. Even a color bind person (no matter which type) will be able to tell you the number based on contrast, not color. Fun fact.
