Read or listen now | Your Sunday morning thought piece. Today we explore the history of redheads, and celebrate the 1% of the global population that carry the MC1R gene.
Hi, what source did you use for the statement that during the Spanish Inquisition redheads were automatically identified as Jews? It sounds interesting, I would really like to read more about that!
Oh okay sorry, you‘re right you said it different in your article than I just did. I‘m still very interested in those sometimes false accusations of redheads being Jews, do you still have the source you took that from or know where else I might be able to read more of it? I really like your article btw :)
As a redhead with blue eyes, this is a great read! There are redheads in my family on both my maternal (Lithuanian) and paternal side (Scottish). I’ve been called many names (doesn’t bother me in the slightest), my favourite is the endearing “ranga”, short for orangutan. Said with an Australian accent, it’s quite amusing.
hogwash calling a redhead arranger is no different in my eyes to calling a negro a gorilla it is racist and I wouldn't dare have the balls to do that it is not endearing it is pathetic bullying buy in bread convicts
Rossetti the pre raphaelite loved painting women with red hair. In portrait and life painting the transparency and lightness of their skin provides the painter a huge range of tones and colours
I shave my head...the hair when it grows isn't red, there are no red heads in my family, all the same a fantastic read...even though I was expecting a financial read rather than a follicle red.
I know you may get smoke blown up your 4rse on a daily basis, however I genuinely appreciate your content whether written or spoken. Wise words calmly spoken in turbulent times.

Not automatically! I didn't say that

I can imagine!

Yes, I hadn't thought of that.

Thank you. I tend do go off-topic at the weekends, and stay on topic during the week.
