If you do enough math (like grad school level) you’ll realize that math is actually green.

I liked math and still made it red. But I also like the color red. I think I always had math be red or black.

I'm very curious about why grad school maths feel green

They just do? Maybe due to more abstraction/fewer actual numbers. It’s less stressful than red. And the amazing connections make it a bit mystical. Some mentioned that science is green and math is queen of the sciences

Red from all the teacher note on your math copy, easilly balance everything you said.

Red from the blood you're spilling by scratching your arms, face or biting your nails over the exam. Red from the anger and dispute you have when your parent try to force you to study it and make a "simple"equation.

Red from the note you make on the formula to remind you how it work and how noumbers works.

I've always enjoyed and been good at math but I guess I could understand this for people who struggle with it

Aka most people. Math is by far one of the most hated subject in school by the vast majority of students.
