Red Heads ...The minority color in the hair world....
but the most wanted dyed color around the world.
Though in Britain redheads are teased and taunted to a horrible degree that it is being thought of as a national form of racism/ discrimination. Ginger balls being the most funny and ridiculous real insults that I have heard that is used very harshly by our pretentious cousins over the pond. In a British documentary/ social experiment show called " Boys and Girls Alone" in which boys and girls under the age of 13 are separately given houses and every living expenses but without grown-ups. A major problem for one of the girls is her unpopularity in school because of her read hair ( actually called ginger nut in school)and her mother hopes this experience will help her self esteem. Though she is automatically shunned as the weak gazelle to pick on.
Though I can think of many red heads in the U.S media as being the nerds their hair color have never received the most attention. I can think of many redhead freckled characters who are bullies. . . . . please think about these characters and if our views have affected the character looks or the other way around.
