My friends call me "Red", and I don't mind in the least, I actually enjoy it.

But yes "Ginger" and even worse "Ginga"... ugh!

I agree with this article. Ginger tends to be negative. Redhead is positive.

Heres a comment for you saying its no different from other bullying. Look at the stuff coming up showing how upset red heads are, if it was no different these kind of pages wouldnt exist. Redheads are sick of bullying, Im 23 years old and for the first time in my life I will openly call my hair red, how many Tall or Fat kids take 23 years to work up the courage to call themselves tall or fat
And this is not unique I know many people in my same situation, some older who still cannot admit their natural hair colour because of the social stigma that has gone with it. That makes it different from being bullied for tallness or fatness.

And Can I just add, in both situations they can be changedm, you can work out to appear more stout, you can diet or have operations to lose weight, you cannot, CANNOT try any method even regardless of money to permanently change all the hair colour on ones body.

Races are just multiple genetic mutations over time, so yes Gingerism is racism because its a genetic mutation and races are defined by different genetic mutations.

Gingers have been sacrificed in history, let us not forget that. To the Spanish Inquisition red hair was PROOF that one had stolen the fire of hell, there is plenty of historical discrimination for it if one bothers to look into history. If we didnt learn the history of the slave trade would it be ok to be racist?

I can't put my finger on it, but as a ginger I was bothered by this ad... If I figure out why I'll make it known to the community, but for now I'll just be happy with my unreasonable rage.

Hi. I have a spanish redhead blog, which was the first (and I think the only one) redhead blog in spanish. I saw your blog and it is really interesting.
By the way I have not much time too write, but perhaps we could share information or post about redheads.
Hope you will continue with your blog!

I hate being called Ginger. People think it is just something funny to say but don't realize that when you call me a ginger, you are asking for trouble. Red is fine. I've even been called fire crotch. None of witch make me as upset as being called Ginger. It's time for redheads to unite and put an end to this racial slur!

2012-01-06T22:43:05.902Z

Ginger is not offensive as a descriptor of an INDIVIDUAL - but it is offensive when it is used to characterise and draw conclusions about someone - i.e. prejudice them.

In exactly the same way, it would be fine for the employee to have written "black kid" on the box if there was only one african-american kid in the store. It's just a descriptor.

However once you start saying "gingers have such fiery tempers" it is exactly the same as saying "blacks are always stealing stuff". You are prejudicing a group of people.

It seems so many people miss the main point of this song that language is just simply language. Ie it is forbidden in society for a white person to use the n word but it seems acceptable for a black person to use without causing offence. Genius.

Dude if she's asking about your pubes, I would take that as she's interested in your carnal regions. I would tell her it's only fair that she tell you her carpet color or even better show you.

I find this app to be a total travesty!

Supposedly backed by some ginger support group it got through apples race policy, my problem is that if the app made you look black it wouldn't have ever been made let alone published on the app store

agreed! you can call me red or tell me im firey thats okay.... i even heard fantapants the other day and laughed for like five minutes straight... however Ginger and Ginge are the two least creative words you could use.... theyre equivalent to the n word for african americans or the s word for latin americans. cant we just be irish americans?! or something ...

I'm sorry these are not racist at all. They are discrimintory, bigoted or intolerent statements.

Race = racism. Hair color is not race, therefore it's not racism.

Do you also think that blonde haired people are a separate race? Please educate yourself on the meaning of a race.

Also, I would like to point out that children of all hair colors, body types, ethncities and such have killed themselves after bullying. The children who bullied them probably bullied every other kid at school who was different... fat, glasses, tall, thin, poor, etc.

I'm not saying their behavior is excused, but I think 'gingerism' should be reserved for adults using the phrases. Children will be mean to each other no matter what 'defect' they percieve in a specific child.
