Originally posted by gingerjediI am a victim, I was picked on at school because of the colour of my hair and to this day I have to put up with remarks that 'ordinary' people don't have to, is it acceptable to call someone 'fatty' or 'coon' to their face? No, so why am I expected to just put up with it?
But as long as people perpetuate this 5hit all I have to look forward to is my child coming home from school crying because some feckin idiot thinks it's ok and acceptable to teach their kids to take the pi55 out of people with red hair.
Jed, do u have ginger pubes as well?

Originally posted by SallyAnneah jedi man - you have to change this attitude, else you WILL have your child coming home from school in tears, cause he'l pick up on your sensitivity and make it his own.
I've said many times I dont find "fatty" (or words to that effect) offensive. Its a fact, not a put down. Its only a put down if you feel insecure about it yourself.
And exactly the same for ginger hair. Its not an insult - how could it be?! Ginger hair is lovely!Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Ginger biscuits are nice.
Whoever heard of a blonde biscuit?
And a brown biscuit sounds a bit rude.Comment

Originally posted by gingerjediGood advise, to be fair I'm more aubern than copper and I hung around with the hard kids so I didn't get too much stick at school, I know of others who had it a lot worse and I felt their pain like only a 'ginger brother' could!
There was a particular ginger kid, who did get smashed alot. More than the others, but that was because he was just a loud mouthed annoying fecker, and the fact he was ginger was just a bonus to kick him double hard, or more regulary.
Ginger or no ginger, if u get the respect for beign a decent person, lifes much easier.
no feck off the lot of ya.Comment
