Didn’t people do this to seem counterculture/edgy? I mean, it looked kind of cool the first time I read about it, but that was only because of the novelty factor. That sixth sense doesn’t really help us, and I’m pretty sure that more animals would have a magnetic sensor if beneficial. Some pigeons have magnetic sensors to determine their orientation to the earth.
- lithos 9y agoA little glad I missed out on this when it was fadish (even unused ear piercing can get males in trouble for being out of regs in the military). Though it did for a while get me interested in senses we lose because we don't have words for them. Color identification along cultures/languages being the easiest to actually prove.
- kaffeemitsahne 9y agoIn what way do you suppose we've lost "color identification"?
- achr2 9y agoThere are languages with a single word for blue and green.
- colorsarefun 9y agoPeople who speak a language where two given colors have the same name will have more difficulty telling them apart than someone who speaks a language where those two colors have different names. https://vimeo.com/120808489 https://vimeo.com/120808489
