“ Basically, women were slightly more liberal with the modifiers, but otherwise they generally agreed (and some of the differences may be sampling noise). The results were similar across the survey—men and women tended on average to call colors the same names.”
On a tangent, “more liberal” in this context confounds an insight I had on reading it, that while more words are used to describe the range of colors in the one group, more colors are described by each word in the other. Which is the more conservative?
