Thought I'd post a thread about this since I have red hair. You get a lot of shit growing up with red hair. People make fun of you constantly. Luckily I'm a big dude so I could fend for myself but for the smaller guys and girls I'm sure it was pretty rough for a lot of you out there.

My wife is pregnant and she asked if I wanted our child to have red hair like me. I said probably not because I wouldn't want him/her to be bullied. I personally think red hair is pretty awesome. It makes you unique and I think it can be pretty sexy on women.

So GAF why all the hate for red haired people? Is it solely because we are different?

really? that's no my impression at all.
read haired men, yes.
but read haired women are very desired.

I don't know. I think other women don't see it as "sexy". I actually had this conversation with my wife that I referenced in the OP. I said if we had a girl I think maybe I would want her to be a red head because guys like girls with red hair. She was shocked when I said that. Maybe all women think guys just want blonde bimbos.

Women? Maybe. But young girls get it rough. Bullying against redheads is shockingly common and nasty, even in places where they are common such as some parts of the UK. Kids are just looking for any excuse to fuck with other kids.

Pale redhead girls are my goddamn kryptonite.

I remember the good times when "hot girls" threads were allowed ��

they are now only allowed in our hearts.

It's so gross how any time red hair is brought up people start talking about it like it's a fetish.

well, when you're apart of only 1 to 2 percent of the population, it's a rare thing.
 
All my life I have had solid black hair with the occasional Asian white hair.

And then I grew a beard. And in that beard was ginger hair. It is amazing.
Like 10℅ is ginger and when the light catches it just right it positively glows.

I love red hair. It is the best hair and I don't understand the hate.

The internet seems to absolutely love girls with red hair. Though no idea if that also applies to guys and if red haired girls don't get bullied in highschool
 
Ginger beards unite!

I find it interesting that a lot of guys grow red beards or at least partially red beards when the rest of their hair is a different color. I wonder what the scientific explanation for that is. My beard actually has some brown and black in it but its mostly red to match my hair.

Damn, this thread feels cold and empty. Like its lacking in something. Soul, perhaps.

How does the gene work btw? My aunt and uncle both have red hair, but both their children have dirty blonde hair

Hooray!

Growing up with red hair was fairly tough, even where I'm from where it's pretty common. I hated my hair when I was a kid, but now I absolutely love it and wouldn't change it for anything. That shit gets me noticed.

Girls either love it or hate it, although the few times I managed to convert them felt great :D

Also, the reactions when taking someones virgingity it worth it alone.

You get a lot of shit growing up with red hair.

To be honest, nowhere is it anywhere close to how it is in the UK. Growing up there, even as a tall, strong kid on the rugby team, meant you were mocked and abused endlessly from all directions.

If there is a god, he hates me. Grew up ginger, started going bald at eighteen and now what's left is going grey.
 

Aiii

So not worth it
National Eva Marie day?
#AllRedEverything is here, what a day.

Oh, it's only for natural redheads? That's not very accepting, red haired folks, I figured you guys would be more inclusive.

I kid, of course, have a happy day guys. My beard gets sorta red-ish in the summer when there's a ton of sun. Not sure why that is, but that's about it for me.

Redheads are the best of the best

I had a redhead gf in HS and for sure it was the most beautiful thing on earth that has honored me with her kisses and hugs.

Afterwards she dumped me since she was going to college next year, she was a year older than me.

14 years have passed.

I sittl remember that day, i cried a lot, like a part of me was gone forever.

She consoled me a lot that day, she never played the asshole and left me, she stayed with me all the time until i could hold myself up.

I still remember that fucking day

Redheads are still the best though

I was lucky to never be bullied for my red hair, as a little girl. If anything, that was the one character trait that people fawned over me for (or got creepy weird about). It is strange standing out so much, wherever you go, but l wouldn't trade my hair color for any other. (Also, my brother has red hair and I think red haired men are swell).
