Color and color contrasts are utilized by the ego to give disguised representation to childhood memory traces of the color
contrasts perceived on viewing genitals and pubic hair of adults and children. Mechanisms used by the ego to effect this are described and compared to those observed in the case of screen memories, fetishism, and the day residue. The same psychodynamics and mechanisms are shown to be present in cases where color assumes a role in a fantasy, in a symptom, and in sublimation. Where possible, other genetic determinants for the use of color are cited.
