| Gingervitis is a serious disease affecting millions of people. Every day 1337 children are born with gingervitis in the United States alone. Not only do these special people have to struggle with a life long disease in which there is no known cure, they are often the target of ridicule and jokes. The only way we will ever find a cure is if we work together. |
me and my husband are red heads. i think people with red hair are the most attractive and of the master ginger race (whose chief enemies are skin cancer and british people).
One reason why gingerphobia is big here in the UK, most gingers in the media are complete and utter toss bags i.e. Chris Evans and Mick Hucknell. Other reasons their overly pale and really freckly.
Don't ask me why at school we'd call them all sorts of names as cruel as it was looking back at it. I guess they stand out from the crowd. One my mates has ginger hair he tries and passes it off as strawberry blonde 
What do you call a black bloke with ginger hair? Duracell.

| Scottish redheads 'more sexually attractive' Scotland's high proportion of redheads may be due to them being more sexually attractive, a leading skin specialist says. Despite long being the target of music-hall comedians south of the border, red hair could simply be the result of sexual selection, according to dermatology expert Professor Jonathan Rees. The Edinburgh University professor, in his inaugural lecture at the institution's medical school, said a single gene carried by up to 40% of Scots was responsible for red hair. The finding was part of a study into the link between skin colour and sun sensitivity which found that although not all of those who carried the abnormal melanocortin-1 receptor were redheads, they tended to be more sensitive to sunlight. Prof Rees said: "Our work suggests that the first human redheads walked this earth 50,000 years ago and then spread throughout northern Europe. "Why are there so many redheads in Scotland? We cannot be certain that chance did not play a role, but we also suggest that the very obvious selection people make for their sexual partners based on physical characteristics may be relevant." Prof Rees said the difference between people's sensitivity to ultraviolet rays varied by up to 100 times depending on their skin colour. He added that while doctors were increasingly warning patients of the risks of skin cancer, ultraviolet radiation was being used to treat an increasingly wide range of skin diseases. He said: "Questions for the future include not only how can we improve our current treatment and minimise the toxicity of ultraviolet, but also how can we go on making clinical discoveries to benefit the 10 or 20% of the population who suffer from skin disease." |
i thought this thread was about ginger the root. makes me sick.
btw, ginger makes a great delicacy to add a good kick to sauces and meat.

I've known some fine-ass redheads, freckles and all. No discrimination here.

I have one ginger friend, but i think having the nickname 'calamity' is worse than whenever we take the piss out of his hair.
...however he recently bleached his hair and he looks a right twat, bright red frekly skin with bright blonde/white hair 
plus i wouldn't really say that ginger people are discriminated against
it's used in the same way that any physical defect is used against you. like in the heat of an argument.
'you ginger ****!'
