I'm two of those four, and so get pretty reactionary towards it as well. Wouldn't you be three of those four, as lesbians are also considered to be gay? And why are you posting in pink?

I actually meant transsexual and bisexual.Mostly cause I feel like it. Also, I could try going on a rant that it's cerise (link: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerise_(color)), which is a purplish red, and not pink, but it does look similar enough, and don't actually care that much if people call it pink.

Got to back up Lt. Fred, though I say the Gold Coast is superior to Brisvegas... You think the Gold Coast is less like Vegas than Brisbane?

Color representation on different ouput devices is varying. For example monitor's representation depends on type (CRT vs LCD), parameters of the monitor (e.g color temp for CRT, contrast and brightness for LCD etc.), manufacturing quality and so on. So what you claim to be one color can be perceived very differently on another monitor.

So what you claim to be one color can be perceived very differently on another monitor. A lot of people are also not that good at picking out some of the more subtle differences in colour, which when combined with how different monitors can display them just compounds the problems. Even if it weren't for the differences in monitors, I really wouldn't care too much, as I do like a lot of pinks.
Paradox: No problem, I was the one that didn't specify (though it is listed right under my avatar... ). Of course, as a lot of people don't even recognize bisexuality, and I do prefer women more than men (4-5 on the Kinsey scale), I guess I could try to claim I'm all 4.
