Redheads facing extinction

Sad news today from the National Geographic suggesting that Redheads, or Ginger Headed People, could become extinct within the next hundred years.

Here's an extract from a report featured in the Courier Mail:

REDHEADS are becoming rarer and could be extinct in 100 years, according to genetic scientists.

The current National Geographic magazine reports that less than two per cent of the world's population has natural red hair, created by a mutation in northern Europe thousands of years ago.

We need to start a Redhead breeding colony before it's too late! I would strongly suggest that redheads start hooking up with other redheads in order to save the species!

If the gingers really want to save themselves they should move to Scotland.An estimated 40 per cent of Scots carry the red gene and 13 per cent actually have red hair.

Isla Fisher (Natural Redhead)If you don't know any redheads personally, here are a few of the more famous members, both past and present, of the ginger fraternity.

  • Lucille Ball (TV Legend)
  • Lizzie Borden (Alleged axe murderer)
  • Mark Twain (Author)
  • Alexander the Great (mighty ruler of Mesopotamia)
  • Geri Halliwell (Spice Girl)
  • Carrot top (Ass Clown)
  • Julianne Moore (The Other Clarice)
  • Isla Fisher (Hottie and Mrs Borat)
  • Shirley Manson (Lead Singer from Garbage)

I'd implore you to take a Ginger under your wing, and do everything that you can to make sure the Ginger community does not go the way of the dodo!

Save a Ginger, start your own Redhead breeding colony today!

    Ha ha! Starting my own redhead breeding colony now… :-)

    I saw a documentary about Gingers last week, they were saying that women see red headed guys as weak and poor breeding partners.

    Yet women have shaken off the stigma attached and guys now see red headed girls as fiery vixens!

    Amazing what you learn on TV!

    Yeah, ginger dudes aren’t as widely accepted in the wild as their female counterparts. There is the whole “carrot top” stigma associated with red headed males. I’m sure some ladies are into redheaded guys, there is probably a whole subculture/fetish industry built around that!

    Now, theres an idea for a new website….lol

    ginger-top-fetish.com

    count me in on that ginger-lovin’ subculture.
    i love redheads-i’m dating a gingerbread man now.
    gingervitis is not a disease, it’s totally a gift.
    and i object to the quotation “a mutation in northern Europe thousands of years ago.”
    more like a miracle.
