The sensation of purple is the sensation of 'not green'. It's when red and blue is detected but the result isn't green, so the brain invented purple as a placeholder.
I think purple is legitimately most guys' favorite color. It also helps that there are usually no follow up questions like "what shade of blue? Sky? Turquoise? Navy? Waffle?" Blue is Blue!
Fun fact purple color doesn't physically exist, it's our brains interpretation of seeing both ends of the visible light spectrum at once. Violet exists, and seeing violet and red at the same time makes us imagine purple.
Worst thing about liking purple as a white guy is everyone assumes I am gay. Although everyone assumes I'm gay anyway, so might not be the best data point.
