you spend years building up the callouses on your fingertips to play guitar and bass comfortably, only to lose it all in a tragic cheese slicing accident.

I was reading a little bit about design and came across a brief table of psychological associations of colors.
It may be about as scientific as astrology but I think colors do affect the subconscious to a degree and there are certain built in associations, if not connotations with respect to certain colors.
First example: apparently men stereotypically prefer orange to yellow, and women vice versa, which doesn't exactly make sense but I will take note anyway.
Do you find yourself naturally gravitating toward certain colors? Does that say something about your psyche?
As another example, here's the list for grey/silver:
intellect, futurism, modesty, sadness, decay, elegance
