    Proud ranga here. Dating a 'blonde' who has ranga tendencies. Our kids will definitely be ranga and they'll be proud of it like I am!!

    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 :)

    LOL Good luck with that! 4 of my 7 are gingers and neither DH or I are (at least not naturally, I am on occasion ;) ) meanwhile, my sister who IS a ginger is the momma of blondes.

    Born a redhead, still a readhead. (I must say, I don't really care for the term "ginger" though...)

    No, why not? (Serious question)

    So what would the opposite of a "daywalker" be?

    I'm not offended by it in any way, I think it's more because it's foreign to me. French is my main language (although I've been able to speak English fluently since I was 6) and although I've lived and worked in predominately English places (covering both Canada and even the US), until joining MFP (2 months ago), I had never heard the expression....and I'm 33! lol

    Oh I see, interesting. I think "ginger" is an English term actually, don't hold me to that though. Might explain why you never heard it.

    It's a joke reference to south park. According to Cartman, gingers have a disease called Gingervitis. Daywalkers are redheads that don't have all the Gingervitis symptoms, but they are actually more dangerous than gingers, because they can disguise themselves as regular people.

    I actually laughed out loud when I urban dictionary searched it.

    Lol... 'Daywalker'... Very clever :) I'd never heard it but then I've never been a South Park fan... Not a ginger either - just lurking :happy:

    My Grandparents were ginger, skipped my mom, I have ginger tendencies, less obvious the older I get. My daughter (15) and late son(16) were pure ginger.
