If we takes the pee out someone because they are too short we would be ferociously attacked by the media.If we make remarks/jokes about skin colour,slanty eyes,cerebral palsy and Downs Syndrome and other physical atrributes that are never under the control of the individual we would be rightly vilified.So why should we accept that people with ginger hair are fair game?

I suffered from it quite badly as a child I was fat with ginger hair and bad skin I was always going to be a victim


Eventually (in my 20's) I got my confidence and now am not bothered. Mind you by the time you reach 40 you have heard every ginger joke there is thousands of times .It makes a change to see something original unfortunately this isnt original
