Why are spiral galaxies mainly blue or white?

If a galaxy shows any significant colour band, then it is due to the type of stars present in that galaxy. A blue or white galaxy would have to have a predominant amount of OB stars to project that colour band.Spiral galaxies do not have significantly greater amounts of OB stars, so it is only a "visual" appearance, not a factual one.
