my best friends daughter is ginger and shes the most beautiful baby girl ive ever seen even though i used to think ginger hair was a bit horrible i must admit and i guess i had a phobia of my children turning out with it but you learn to love them for who they are and its pathetic to say they cant have children just because of their hair colour

Why do people dye their hair auburn or have red highlights if ginger is so bad? Just a thought!

Okay, after reading your comment about "looking ginger", I just wanted to add this: there are beautiful and ugly people with all hair colours, whether red, dark or blonde.

Here are a few celebrities with red hair -

Julia Roberts
Nicole Kidman
Lindsay Lohan (original hair colour)
Marcia Cross (Bree off Desperate Housewives)
Gillian Anderson
Kirsten Dunst
Cate Blanchett
Julianne Moore
Nicola Roberts (Girls Aloud)

Would you say that any of these people shouldn't have children?

And here's a bit of science (from Wikipedia):

"Red hair (also referred to as auburn, ginger, ranga or titian) varies from a deep orange-red through burnt orange to bright copper. It is characterized by high levels of the reddish pigment pheomelanin and relatively low levels of the dark pigment eumelanin. People with red hair are often referred to as redheads or, gingers. Approximately 1% to 2% of the human population have red hair.

Red hair appears in people with two copies of a recessive gene on chromosome 16 which causes a change in the MC1R protein. It is associated with fair skin color, freckles, and sensitivity to ultraviolet light, as the mutated MC1R protein is found in the skin and eyes instead of the darker melanin. Cultural reactions have varied from ridicule to admiration; many common stereotypes exist regarding redheads, and they are often portrayed as the “fiery-tempered redhead”.

Red hair is the rarest type of natural hair color in humans. The pale skin associated with red hair may be of advantage in far-northern climates where sunlight is scarce. A 1976 scientific study hypothesized that lighter skin pigmentation prevents rickets in colder latitudes by encouraging higher levels of Vitamin D production and also allows the individual to retain heat better than someone with darker skin. Another study suggested that the vividness and rarity of red hair may lead to it becoming desirable in a partner and therefore it could become more common through sexual selection."

Having read that, I think we should celebrate the uniqueness of those with red hair. In fact, we should actively encourage these people to procreate! Their unique genes may actively help preserve the human race in a future ice age, no doubt propagated by global warming!!

BTW, my hair is dark, in case you were wondering ;-)
