Ginger Hair

[Spungle]

Would you research whether your partner had ginger "genes" before beginning a long-term relationship with them?

I ask the question because a lot of ginger children suffer low self-esteem due to bullying etc, and, the reality is, going through life with ginger hair can be a distinct disadvantage to many people. In some countries, such as Denmark, they turn away ginger-haired donors due to a lack of demand.

When planning a family, is this something you would take into consideration?

I don't look at him that much so I barely notice :-)

It's my mum I really notice, she has hazel eyes and she has eye freckles. They are either light brown or green with dark brown spots.

Me and my kids all have the exact same eye colour. I think the ginger gene skipped me...
