I was browsing the internet and came upon a site. Most of the posts (it was a blog) were flaming redheads. No pun intenended ;) Someone said that her dream was to push a redhead under a bus because all 'ginger mingers' deserve to die. That's really pathetic and downright wrong.

It's just a colour! No one deserves to die just because they have red hair! No deserves to die because they have brown skin! Gosh, why do people DO stuff like this? I've been bullied a countless number of times because of my hair and still do now and I'm 19 and have left school.

Tell her to wait sixty years.
The gene that causes red-hair is dying out, and will be gone within sixty years unless a dramatic, ahem, breeding program is initiated.

-shrug- Dunno much about it dying out.

Must say, though, takes a special sort of idiot to post a blog liek that.

No.
It's dying.
It's well documented, and noted amongst several scientific journals (find them yourself, gone are the days where i care to give links)

Well documented, and well disputed. It is getting rarer but no one can say for sure whether or when it will die out.

As for the blog, if you look hard enough on the internet you'll find groups of people that hate just about everything. I know a few people with red hair, who fair enough had some teasing at school, but now all they get is compliments. I guess it just depends on who you know.

Yeah, I guess I gotta focus on the compliments. Okay, there are still people who bully me but I do get compliments sometimes too. As for it dying out, it's a real shame.

I personally find that when it comes to appearence stuff(like hair color, eye color ect...) most of the time the people who bash it are, infact, jelous of the other persons red hair or whatever else they are bashing. They just seem to express it in odd, rude ways. Id just ignore them if I were you.

*shrug*

I've got red hair which tends to stand out, and I get a lot of comments about it.

Most common would be people walking past and yelling out "wranger!"

I'm over it, people've done it to me for years. If they want to insult me because of a physical feature, they can go ahead. Though if they've got nothing better to do than to insult me for that, they could at least come up with some new, decent, insults. I've heard all the existing ones.. and they're not exactly amusign anymore.

I've never been insulted for my hair color. On the contrary, people usually make a big fuss over it in a positive manner.

I always thought it was spelt "ranger" :P

Yeah, people call me that too... and I used to be really insulted and hurt when hearing that, but now when people tease me for having red hair I just ignore them. I mean, what is so insulting about red hair. That is like teasing someone because they have green eyes... it isn't a defficiency at all, just another colour...

...on another note, how cool would it be to have purple eyes :P

Well... I don't think it is jealousy... The whole "people bully you cause they are jealous" thing is a giant scam to make kids feel better about themselves... (sometimes)... Like in Primary school kids got teased for being fat... People were definately not jealous of this kid...

Though sometimes it is jealousy... But only if you have it better... If someone is teasing you because you're smart, then they are probably jealous...

Hope this didn't crush anyones spirits :(

Im sure Red Hair is becoming more sought after since the advent of the Weasly Clan. And try telling the Scotts its dying out.
