My Finding's for the day ~ Redhead's vs History Not Fair
- Approximately 1-2% of humans, or about two in 100 people in the world, have red hair.j
- The ancient Greeks believed that redheads would turn into vampires after they died
- Red hair is a recessive trait, which means that a child must inherit one red hair gene from each parent. Recessive traits often come in pairs, and redheads are more likely than other people to be left handed.
- “Gingerphobia” is a fear of redheads. “Gingerism” is the bullying or prejudice of redheads.i
- Some scholars postulate that the same gene mutation that causes red hair also affects the way redheads respond to pain and anesthetics.a
- In Egypt, redheads were buried alive as sacrifices to the god Osiris.i
