Hi! 79 lbs! Way to go. Thank you!! chelleann, I read that was a myth. Other things I've read about redheads: redheads were once viewed as witches, redheads require more anesthesia, redheads feel more pain, and redheads have more sex....take that one blondes /quote] Exactly!!! Hi There, I'm a full blown red head. 100% real, too LOL
Hi! 79 lbs! Way to go.
Redhead born and bred. Now going a bit grey and trying to find a red dye with blond instead of brown! Being a redhead is so much a part of my identity, I can't let it go and go grey. I have 4 kids and none are redheads *sigh* My sister is a brunette and she got 2 gingers. Looking around where I live, I don't believe we are dying out. It is crazy how many redheads live here. As to the "less pain tolerance" myth, I saw them testing that on mythbusters and was floored. I had never heard it before! There are actual scientific studies proving that red headed women have a genetic link that makes them have a HIGHER pain threshold. I laughed when I read that because I always just thought my sisters were whiners! The other thing I hear all the time is that reds bleed more. Every single time I walk into a hospital for any reason, they look at my hair and say, "Oh, you're gonna be a bleeder>"
