    As the title says; are red heads offended by Ginger Christmas?

    I've heard a lot of complaints about it lately from people saying it promotes bullying and all this sort of nonsense. Seriously people need to lighten up IMO. The song is for charity and seems to have raised a good bit of money for the Samaritans. I fail to see how people get offended. Its a bit of fun. I really don't like Bernard O'Shea but he did a good job with this.

    For those of you who haven't heard Ginger Christmas here it is:

    i have red hair and people who make fun of red heads are just jealous. less than 1% of the worlds population have red hair. whats so special about brown or blond hair! but i guess the songs for charity so its a good cause.

    I get offended by the song horse outside because i don't have a horse.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I wouldn't believe that if you hadn't posted it!

    My ginger husband has that tesco card as his facebook profile pic. There are no red heads I know (I know alot) that actually get offended by that stuff.

    It's true, and even weirder, she's the only one of her family that didn't have a marriage break up.h

    It doesn't promote bullying, bullying will always go on in a pack and status based society. It directs bullying.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. Kids are little feckers and if they want to bully you they will, be it your hair colour, your weight, your crooked teeth, your spotty face, your glasses, your cleverness, your stupidness, your tallness your shortness, being a redhead is just another thing on the list!

    Red heds aren't offended by anything. We take so much abuse when we are younger that we grow immune to all insults by the time we're about 12.

    So **** off and stop calling me names! :(

    Yeah, that's what I said, only more concisely to convey my superior wisdom.
