2. RED is the color of energy,
passion and action….
3. Red is the color next to orange at
the end of the visible Rainbow
4. It represents power, hence the red
power tie for business people and the
red carpet for celebrities and VIPs (very
important people).
Flashing red lights denote danger or
emergency. Stop signs and stop lights
are red to get the drivers' attention and
alert them to the dangers of the
intersection
5. Red, the color of blood and fire, is
associated with meanings of love, passion,
desire, heat, longing, lust, sexuality,
sensitivity, romance, joy, strength,
leadership, courage, vigor, willpower, rage,
anger, danger, malice, wrath, stress, action,
vibrancy, radiance, and determination.
6. Red represents power and courage. The
color red is the basis of the traditional red
power tie or red suit in business, and the
red carpet for celebrities and VIPs. Red’s
association with courage and bravery
makes it a color that is used often in
national flags, on shields, and in
achievement patches.
8. The people are stereotype
The best example of this is the long-held
association that black is bad and white is
good. Just watch an old Western movie and
you can immediately tell who the good guys
and bad guys are by the color of their cowboy
hats. This example shows that colors
contribute more than just aesthetics. Colors
also carry specific meanings, such as good or
bad, that likely have important influences on
psychological functioning.
9. If you are like most Americans, you thought
of the color red. Red means different things
to different cultures-in Chinese culture it
represents good luck and prosperity, which
is why people often paint their front doors
red-but in American culture, red often
means Love & sex. If you think about it,
most of the images that represent
passionate love are red: Red roses, red
lipstick, red lingerie, red heart boxes of
candy on Valentine's, even the "red light“ &
redtube

12. Showed women a photograph of a
moderately attractive man and asked her to
rate his attractiveness. For some, the man in
the photo was wearing a red shirt. For others,
the same man was wearing a blue shirt. The
results showed that women rated the man in
red as more attractive and more Love &
sexually desirable than the same man in blue.
They were also more interested in relation the
man and indicated they would be willing to
spend more time with his when he was
dressed in red.

14. So women find men who wear red more
attractive, but maybe this result is
because women have a stereotype
about men who choose to wear red.
15. The results of these studies imply some practical
dating advice: Next time you are getting ready
for a date, consider injecting some red into your
wardrobe. If red is not favourite color for you ,
then try to add just a touch of red. If you are a
woman, consider red jewellery or red high heel
shoes (or the recently popular black heels with a
red sole). If you are a man, consider a red tie or
red handkerchief.
16. But red is a versatile colour. It doesn't just
represent love and lust; it also is used to represent
power and prestige.
A quick look around will tell you that this
association between red and power seems to have
continued into the present day: The "red carpet" is
only rolled out during special events (e.g., Oscars),
and only the most prestigious individuals are
allowed to walk on it. The "power tie" worn by
modern businessmen is traditionally red in colour.
And the stereotypic image of a successful, powerful
man is one who drives a red sports car.
17. The color red is a highly visible color that is
able to focus attention quickly and get
people to make quick decisions, which is
one of the reasons fire trucks and fire
engines are usually painted red. Flashing
red lights mean danger or emergency,
while stop signs and stop lights use the
color red to alert drivers about the
dangers of the intersection
