Why doesn't the writer of the comic just have him put on a dress and play with a Barbie? Since that's basically what the joke is. Maybe it's just me but this one's fuckin dumb.

Women have more ability to perceive colors due to physical differences. Link

Edit: guys the image is to give you an idea of what it's like. Read the article. There is an actual observed, measurable statistically significant difference in color perception.

That's just saying colorblindness is more common in men, and tetrachromacy is more common in (maybe exclusive to?) women. It's still really rare tho (estimated 2-3% in that link)

speaking of tetrachromacy, listen to the Polygondwanaland album by King Gizzard And The Lizzard Wizard
