This dress might have just proven that Chinese netizens have better eyesight than you

Whether you're Team White and Gold, Team Black and Blue, or Team I Don't Give A Toss, this dress was probably unavoidable on your Twitter feeds, Facebook timelines and WeChat friends circles all day yesterday:

Indeed, even Chinese netizens were not impervious to the global online hysteria - a fact that somehow still bears noting for some reason.

There is one interesting divergence, however: while 75 percent of voters in a Buzzfeed poll thought the dress was white and gold, 55 percent of Weibo users voted black and blue.

At this point, it's been well established that the dress in question is in fact blue and black, and that those who see it as white and gold are being fooled by a phenomenon known as color constancy that forces our brain to make assumptions about colors based on their context or presumed context.

So does this mean China's netizens have stronger eyes than other web users worldwide? Maybe. Or maybe they just did their research before voting.
