The Ginger Gene

Stiffler2 · 09-12-2011 04:08PM #1

Trying to come up with threads here that haven't really been dived into too much.

The Ginger Gene, gingers in general

This being 1 of the most popular Ginger video's of a Ginger going mad about being ginger

Apparently all gingers will be dead soon as they're breed is dying out

Wiki said so, so if Wiki says so it must be true :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_hair

Are you ginger, do you mind being ginger ?

I peronsally couldn't care less. I did obvioulsy enjoy giving them a hard time in school with "ding a ling a ling your heads on fire..." and so on

In terms of Ginger women I think they end up at either end of the scale.
You can have some absolutely stunning ginger women but 80% are fugly but like I said some of them are unreal, can't give any examples at the mo.

So speak gingerly to me. I couldn't find a ginger forum so AH will have to do.
Looking up history this doesn't seem to be done before so let's Rick Roll

Meh, I'm strawberry blonde.

charlietheminxx · 09-12-2011 04:14PM

I'm a ginger! I fucking love my hair

Yeah I got slaggings when I was younger and it has been dyed every colour under the sun at some point during my teens, but I wouldn't swap it for the world now.

69 posts - awesome!

(I'm so mature.....)

In my humble opinion, gingers should be strerilised at birth or at least provided with hair dye at birth:p:p:p

hondasam · 09-12-2011 04:15PM

Red heads hot and fiery or is that just the women? I like ginger hair.

Tesco Massacre · 09-12-2011 04:18PM

Ginger. Honestly :rolleyes:.

It's Autumn Gold.

Teyla Emmagan · 09-12-2011 04:21PM

I love red hair.

Hate the word 'ginger' though.

Immaculate Pasta · 09-12-2011 04:22PM

Ireland would lose a lot of tourism revenue if the ginger gene died out and for that reason I'm out :cool:

TiGeR KiNgS · 09-12-2011 04:25PM

couldn't care less

Seeing the poll results I kind of feel ashamed about picking the first option.

WoollyRedHat · 09-12-2011 04:26PM

I personally love ginger nuts and amn't disagreeable to the occasional nibble of one either

Edit: View at own discretion

I used to know a lad with red hair. We used to take him around on a leash and he'd drink out of puddles and things like that. Sound lad.

Terrible temper on him, though.

It's nice to know you value us as sideshow freaks put out for rich yanks to gawp at.:D

I have to admit, if my child were ginger I would be a little disappointed.

It's not just the hair, you can dye hair. It's the skin.

9 times out of 10, gingers are horribly pallid, sickly looking creatures.

And spotty.

Certainly,freckles in sunshine too.

Not a sign of beauty.

And lets just hope the child shan't be hairy too. A horrible combination.

I have a ginger relative - a cousin. Bit of a black sheep. Into Death Metal and all that. Doesn't join in on family picnics. Not the most gregarious. None of the family traits that characterise the rest of us. All in all a decent, genial sort of chap but as I say, a bit different. Can't quite put my finger on it.

I wouldn't be grief stricken. I'd try to love the child, I probably wouldn't put the thing up for adoption. You try to do your best in these situations.

Apanachi · 09-12-2011 04:29PM

I have a ginger niece and she is one of the most beautiful children I have ever seen (apart from my two girls that is

)

There is no grey area when it comes to ginger females, they are either very good looking or piss ugly.

I agree with this. They're like Chinese wimmin. No middle ground whatsoever.

Marry an Asian woman just in case the ginger gene is lying dormant - Randy Marsh

Tesco Massacre · 09-12-2011 04:35PM

Has anyone ever seen a ginger couple?

I've heard tell of such an occurrence in the old manuscripts, but I've yet to see it with my own eyes. It must be a wondrous sight.

Abi · 09-12-2011 04:37PM

I'd drown it like a bag of cats.

Does anyone remember that ginger 'Bernard' chap who I seem to recall was a stripper who enjoyed 15 minutes of fame after an episode of Blind Date about 15 years ago?

To this day, when I imagine the boogieman, I see that guy.

In my humble opinion, dickheads should be sterilised at birth but lucky for you that isn't the case!

I completely agree with you here hence my "either end of the scale" comment
Ginger women can either be stunning or devastating

Dotrel · 09-12-2011 04:38PM

One usually finds the best looking "ginger" women aren't even ginger to begin with and are just non-afflicted persons who have dyed their hair.

Natural gingers are generally a fairly grim looking bunch. It's not so much the colour of the hair so much as the pale skin, horrible freckles and dead looking eyes that accompany it.

you are cruel Abi, ginger kids are cute and freckles are gorgeous.

TheZohanS · 09-12-2011 04:43PM

Dated a red head once, she wasn't carrot top, she had a nicer hair colour. Lovely girl but very fiery.

No soul though...which was a pity...

padraig91 · 09-12-2011 04:44PM

How come "Kill it with fire!" is not an option on the poll?

That's from all the bullying.

'Hey, period head!'

'Ding-a-ling-a-ling, your head's on fire.'

'Have you read any books lately?
'Yes'
'Have you red pubes?'

And that's just on a normal day. Can't be easy.

sandmanporto · 09-12-2011 04:45PM

its a bit rich hearing people make fun of red hair. after all hitler considered blondes superior to dark hair which the majority of irish folk have. its annoying seeing so much anti red banter on here.
