The lack of red color detecting cones may be a genetic disorder, and thus be able to be inherited.

Are red and green the only colors you can't see while colorblind?

No, the term "red-green colorblindness" means that you cannot tell the difference between red and green. There are several different types of colorblindness; red-green colorblindness is the most common kind. For example, another kind is blue-yellow colorblindness, where a person cannot tell the difference between blue and yellow. All types of colorblindness are much more common in men. See the Related Link below for the Wikipedia entry on colorblindness.

Is colorblindness a disability?

Not necessarily. The allele for colorblindness is recessive. For a female, in order to be colorblind she must have to recessive alleles for colorblindness. Example: XcXc would be colorblind. XCXc would be a carrier for colorblindness, but not colorblind. For a male, because colorblindness is a sex-linked gene, he only needs one allele to be colorblind. Example: XcY is colorblind. XCY is not colorblind.

I am a blindhow would you describe a color blue and red to me?

You must be lying. There's no type of colorblindness that would make one confusing red and blue. Green and red yes, blue and green yes, and sometimes blue and purple, but not red and blue. No matter what type of colorblindness you have, whether it's protanopia, deuteranopia, or tritanopia, blue and red would look different.
