Titan Paris, a person who is color blind, explains that being color blind does not mean he cannot see colors, but rather that he sees them differently. He mentions that colored blindness is more common than people think, with an estimated 300 million color blind individuals worldwide, 95% of whom are men. He specifically has red-green color blindness, known as Protan, which affects the green and red cone cells in his eyes. Titan inherited this condition from his grandfather, who passed on the color blind gene to his children. Titan's mother is a carrier of the gene, which she passed on to him. He mentions that people with color blindness may have difficulty distinguishing between red and green, and shares a fun fact about some color blind individuals being surprised that peanut butter is not green. When asked why people have color blindness, Titan's mother suggests that it is a hereditary condition, while others speculate that it may be due to differences in how their eyes perceive and Hello, my name is Titan Paris and I am colored blind. What does being colored blind mean? It doesn't mean that I don't see colors, it simply means I see colors differently. Colored blindness is more common than you would think. It is estimated that there are 300 million colored blind people worldwide. Among the colored blind community, 95% are men. 98% of people with colored blindness have red-green colored blindness. This makes it difficult to know the difference is with these colors. Protan is the type of colored blindness I possess. This is a defect in a person's light-sensitive cone cells. It affects the green-sensing M cones and the red-sensing L cones. How did I become colored blind? I was born with it. My grandfather is colored blind and he passed the colored blind genes to his kids. My mother is not colored blind, but she is a carrier of this gene. This allows her to pass it on to her children. When a mother has a child, she will provide an X chromosome to the child. If she provides her son the X chromosome with the colored blindness gene, he will be colored blind. However, if he receives the X chromosome which does not possess the colored blindness genes, he will not be colored blind. This means I have a 50% chance of being colored blind. I suppose I didn't win the coin toss. A fun fact, sometimes red-green colored blind people are often surprised that peanut butter is not green. Why do you think people have colored blindness and why? I know because I was advised by my doctor when I was pregnant with you that it's a hereditary condition so I know that I pass it on to you. I'm not sure why it is or how the genetic defect began, but I know that I pass it on to you. Why do you think people are colored blind? I think it's because they are so special that they feel things so intensely that they cannot absorb all the colors or it would just be too much for them and they would have too much perfection and I also think it's your mom that gave it to you. Why do you think people are colored blind? Because their eyes are different and sometimes they may not see other colors through light that might not like visualize or that it would be seen differently. Okay. Being dead, why do you think people are colored blind? It's hereditary, isn't it? Yeah? Yes, it is. Why do you think some people are colored blind? Because of genes, like it passes down. What? I don't know.
