There's just something about the color '''[[red:red]]''' in the human psyche. It's the lowest visible color on the human color spectrum. It's the color of {{blood|yTropes}} and therefore danger, warnings, and anger. But it is also the color we [[FireIsRed associate with fire,]] and therefore power, warmth, love and passion (and sometimes evil), and is a popular color in flags and heraldry. Much unlike {{pink|IsForTropes}}, red can be seen as a very masculine color, if not more than blue. However, it's also a common color for mature, [[FemmeFatale seductive]] ladies. If a language has only three primary color terms, they will invariably be black, white, and red.
