I lash my auburn locks in the miscreant's face.
In reality: I'm ginger enough to be kicked on Kick-a-Ginger Day, but not hugged on Hug-a-Ginger Day. This means that I'm not called "ginger" often, just often enough for me to really not care and shut down any further insults of that type.

Ginger wasn't always derogatory, and it's crazy that it is now. I've always liked the word, and I'm definitely attracted to ginger girls. Red hair and freckles are awwwwesome.
It's always confused me when someone calls me "ginger" as my hair is a brown/blonde colour, but not ginger. The only time I have referred to someone as ginger, it is when I have to describe the person to someone else. But no. I don't think I know of anyone that gets angry when they get called ginger.
I have brown hair but I think ginger hair is really attractive on a girl, prefer it to blonde which everyone else seems to go for.
My hair is naturally blonde-brown, currently a sort of shitty burgundy.
When people call me ginger it's fucking hilarious.

I do have unique hair, but TECHNICALLY it isn't the "red" or "orange" color, it's a little darker and I don't mind having it but allot of people see it as "red hair".
I also have fair skin but apparently I make the "red" hair and fair skin combination look normal somehow.
Some retards have called me some names about it but it was weak-sauce in terms of how clever it was as the best insults they could express didn't really do anything other than point out "red hair".
But does it bother me to be referred to as "ginger"? Nah, people just don't know what else to call me. I have never been called "ginger" as an insult (or if someone has then wow, that's kind of sad that it was so unnoticeable), it was usually more jokingly than insulting and from my very own friends. More often than calling me ginger, they try to figure out just what the hell I am to begin with.
Ginger or not, even the worst insults people have tried to come up with didn't really affect me and neither should it affect you, I mean come one, those are just lame ass insults that don't really have any effect.
It's like me saying "haha! BRUNETTE!!! HEY EVERYBODY! LOOK AT THE BRUNETTE! HAHA!"
...
and? What's wrong with Brunettes?

OT: No, what with having brown hair and all...
Just doesn't seem as funny anymore...
Beat me too it haha.kurupt87 said:
But I kinda got over it in Year 7, and since then Ive become a lot more (and sometimes a bit too) confident with myself, and If anything people like me more for my hair. Nobody really says anything anymore, I think society in general has gotten sick of it.
More north england or south?Emilyx382 said:Plus Ginger girls are now considered hot here in England, so it doesn't really matter to me anymore
Down south they still kinda get insulted up until after you're out of the education system
OP:
I find the insult ginger to be funny. So when someone calls my friends ginger, i'm like "WELL MATE, YOU SIR, YOU'RE BRUNETTE".
They're usually too confused to say anything else.
Nope, I even accept it; though this is just amoung my group of friends, which contains a fat-ginger, a guy who is more Jewish than actual Jews, an Korean dude, me (the other ginger), and a roughneck. Busting eachothers balls when together is a common occurance.
Yes you are "red" enough to be classified as ginger in slagging terms and yes they persist because it gives them pleasure to see you annoyed. Sad but some people are like that.SirBryghtside said:
OT: Yes I have redish hair(That sorta strawberry Blonde colour if you want to get technical. Yes it is a colour as my hair is more blonde in the summer and more red in winter.) and no one ever calls me ginger as most twats only do it for pure annoyance and in a hateful and spiteful way. Very rarely do people do it in a joking manner. What annoys me more is the double standard of red haired women being attractive yet people still won't go out with men just because they're ginger. No other reason than that.
