Mara Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 If such "prejudice" exists in North America, I sure haven't noticed it. Somehow I find it hard to believe there's actual hardcore anti-redhead sentiment, though, and maybe some folks are being a little hypersensitive? Have to wait to hear from the UK contingent, though, I guess. Not much different than the stereotype of the "dumb blonde" we have here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I AM a redhead. The amount of taunting I get and the bullying I had at school. It DOES exist. I may not be at the ginger end of the spectrum but by George do I get enough stick for it. It is a lot worse than all the blonde jokes out there in my opinion, at least they are not told they're ugly, called gingernuts, carrots... I've even had people throw eggs at me because of my hair colour. Time to maybe open your eyes to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarkus406 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I don't get why anyone would treat someone with red hair any different than someone with brown hair It doesn't make any sense why you wouldn't like someone because of the colour of their hair! People are just retarded I guess.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've even had people throw eggs at me because of my hair colour. Time to maybe open your eyes to this? I absolutely have a RIGHT to say it. Now. I am willing to admit that there appears to exist an unwarranted prejudice against redheads. Heretofore I was unaware of this. Color me informed. That's f*cking insanity, right out. Are there really people who think redheads are some species of subhuman? Good lord. I've heard of redheads called "gingers" before but didn't know it was meant in a derogatory manner. And of course there's the age-old "redhead temper" line. I just never have seen it here to any degree. I'm 20 years out of school; but 9 years ago I was dying my hair dark red(!) Never heard a mean word. I'm sorry you've been through this. Are adults this bad or is it just kids looking for a reason to be mean to and exclude others?

Xanadoood Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Ive had nothing but fun with redheads. Do they have more attittude than others?..Perhaps its just the image they like to portray, but from my experience, they have it in spades, in a good way of course. Redheads rock!

Rolinda Bonz Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 red hair is rare and different, and so needs to be bullied. i wonder if the fiery personality comes from being picked on olla time. ever heard the term "beaten like a red-headed stepchild" ? well, it used to be funny. i think red is beautiful on either gender. my best friend in high school was a red-head. the obnoxious boys called her "fire crotch". hmm,,,i wonder if that's why my sister likes red-headed men so much.
