    No need to insult gingers. They know what they are.

    I think probably 'ginger' is the worst

    We all secretly love red hair though

    It's incredibly popular in north America. The wife is hoping I'll transmit some kind of latent ginger DNA to our eventual offspring. Im unable to get onside with that opinion

    My mum is a red head, she used to be called "Carrot top" by one of her teachers! :eek:

    I've heard "Duracell" as well back in the 80s, they used to have an ad: "The one with the copper top".

    I used to work with a red haired lad, we used to slag each other all the time. One day I told him "Fúck off Ginger Pubes". He responded "Aaaah it's like a sausage hanging out of a fire". :D

    Red hair is gorgeous though, even if my mum hated hers, she prayed during her pregnancies that her children wouldn't have it! :( I know two women with long curly red hair and they both look amazing!

    In Australia, red heads get called 'rangers' (rhyming with clangers)

    Took me a while to get what it meant......

    Never heard that red-heads had a tenancy towards being flat chested.

    I'm definitely not flat chested!

    I was in Japan a few years ago, and while sitting waiting in an airport I became aware of these two kids staring at me. I'd look up and catch their eye and they'd immediately look away.

    Their mother very politely came up and apologised saying they had never seen someone with red hair before. I told her there was no need to apologise and it was all very civil, very polite and a bit of a laugh.

    The irony is I hated my red hair when I was a kid, because it made me stand out, as I got older I grew to love it, because it made me stand out! When I worked in an Irish bar in Chicago I f$^king cleaned up in tips!

    Plus, the added bonus is that I'm never mistaken for being English :D

    I can only imagine how boring it must be to blonde or dark haired!

    As for insults, I think I've heard them all - copper-top, duracell, carrot-top, ginger-minger etc

    There was also the ginger baiting years of the comedy series "Game On"

    I've never heard anything connecting red haired women and small tits until i read this thread. Judging by the knockers on red haired women that i know this would appear to be a myth

    As a kid my hair was fairly reddish. My aul fella, never to miss an oportunity to have some fun (bollocks is his term of endearment, for example), called me 'rusty' until I was around 7.

    I remember one day when I was around 16 or 17, I was taking the piss out of him in front of my mates for going bald, grey, or both, and he turned around in front of everyone and went, "Oi, ging-er, you're lucky we brought you home from the hospital."

    Put me back in my box! :pac:

    I've never understood why "gingers" get such a hard time. Why is that?
    I find red haired girls super attractive.

    Had a massive crush on a guy in school with auburn hair and hazel eyes. If I met him today the clothes would be off within seconds.

    She's a fake redhead...dyes it that way. You'd be thinking of Isla Fisher, Amy Adams or Felicia Day being natural and beautiful though...

    Because we stand out, and standing out makes you a target in school. Well, it used to anyway.
