Redhead Rant

<p>ahem...
i would just like to point out that redheads are a significantly lower minority of the population, esp. in the US, and that some scientists say the gene for red hair will die out in the next 50 or so years.
and yet there are no redhead scholarships.
<em>peeved.</em></p>

<p>I think I may refuse to procreate just to spite those stingy finaid people.
...
I'll let you know how it goes.</p>

<p>XD
Weatherly</p>

<p>It’s worse than that! Because it’s a recessive type that has traditionally been limited to certain populations, and those populations are much more mobile and dilute, some folks think that redheads will be extinct in 100 years. You’re a member of an endangered minority!</p>

<p>Exactly! in fact, there are some places, (erm… I think in Scotland?) where two readheads marrying can get a fund so they’ll be able to support more (likely) redheaded children and pass on the trait.
ahem.
They’ll support us for natural selection- but they don’t want us going to college.
sigh.
when i’m rich- i’m starting a freaking redheaded fund.
and it will be awesome.</p>

<p>Are you a daywalker or a ginger? If it’s the latter… BURN HIM AT THE STAKE!</p>

<p>Pachydermia, there’s a Sherlock Holmes story you need to read: [Sherlock</a> Holmes - The Red Headed League](<a href=“http://sherlock-holmes.classic-literature.co.uk/the-red-headed-league/]Sherlock”>Sherlock Holmes - The Red Headed League)</p>

<p>Blonds are going extinct, as well. The joys of globalization.</p>

<p>I don’t mind red hair becoming extinct, but I really don’t want it to happen to blonde hair too! :(</p>

<p>i love red hair. i really want to have a redheaded baby.</p>

<p>like 10% of our school pop. are redheads…that seems like BS…</p>

<p>blond too…
I actually appreciate blond hair, considering the fact that only two recessive gene can make one person blond! Kind of exotic, to some extent. lol
haha
Well, see, yellow skin ppl are only like 3 percent of the population. :smiley:
Had we inherit our ancestor’s reproductive ability, this nation’s backyard would be converted to rice paddies long time ago. haha that’s my evil plan.</p>

<p>wow you guys actually believe that redhead are going away</p>

<p>Can genetic engineering make it possible to reverse the possible extiction of blondes? I don’t want the blonde population to drop by any amount.</p>

<p>Raven hairs = best</p>

<p>I don’t think blond and redheads are going to extinct at all based on scientific evidences. :D</p>

<p>Blond hair looks so… white. Go black hair!</p>

<p>Green hair is the only way to go. Liberty spikes don’t look right in any other color, except for a very limited number of people who can pull it off with purple or blue.</p>

<p>I’m not sure what a daywalker is…
so I dunno.
and I’m a girl, silly. there will be no “burning HIM at the stake.”
:slight_smile:
if I had any other hair color, I would dye it fuschia in a second.</p>

<p>Haha all you blondes and redheads will die out and us black haired people will rule your countries!</p>
