Discussion: Why are younger women more likely to wear red and orange while older women are more likely to wear purple or blue instead?

This is a familiar phenomenon that has an energetic explanation.

Red is the first of the rainbow colors, with the lowest frequency and longest wavelength. Red is the color of the sex that characterizes young people who transmit (at the energy level) that they are accessible for sex.

Purple is at the other end of the rainbow; blue is before it. Purple has the shortest wavelength of visible light and the highest energy, so it is especially suitable for older women.

White is a combination that reflects all the rainbow colors, while black absorbs all the colors. The use of white for marriage and black for mourning is not accidental.
