Usually one tends to dominate the other, whether in your wardrobe, paint scheme, artistic drawings or other manner.

I also love to read articles like this. Fun and informative.
Nice Hub! ...Where's gray in this? :P
But to be honest, I think a lot of this is purely a generalization.
I love this hub! I would like to think that I am pink :) Voted up.
Hmmm this was interesting Lali!
I am soooo blue! Not always as calm as I'd like but blue is my favorite color :) great hub!!!
Does anyone find that they are drawn to different colors at different times in their lives? I was a natural blonde, and used to wear blue often. When I began studying Metaphysics in more depth, and was making positive changes in my life, I was drawn to violets and purples. Lately I like a dark pink, or rose color. I thought maybe it had to do with chakras. I'm happy HP added "Interesting" to the comments, except for up and useful, I didn't really like awesome. Beautiful is fine, of course!
My favorite color would be Blue and Green. I enjoyed reading your hub. It is interesting to see the different meanings for each color.
My favorite color would be Blue'Green and white . I enjoyed reading your hub.
my mood ring stays on red all the time so i guess i stay angry all of the time !!!!!!!!! HA!HA!HA!
I like it, but one could argue the colors black and white being the absence of color and the combination of all colors respectively. While that's true in the light spectrum, if you're talking about paint or dye or anything other than light you'd have to reverse those two statements (black = all color, white = no color). That's actually where black being mysterious and white being purity come from: black includes everything and white is untouched.
Just food for thought, but great Hub overall!
I'm yellow and proud; voted up and 'awesomed' it as well!
Very cool post :) I'm definitely a blue, brown and green.
I enjoyed your hub. I thought you did a terrific job describing the meanings of the different colors. Up and interesting.

Fun hub! I think I'm a pink, purple, and yellow type of girl.:)
