REDHEADS are becoming rarer and could be extinct in 100 years, according to genetic scientists.

The current National Geographic magazine reports that less than two per cent of the world's population has natural red hair, created by a mutation in northern Europe thousands of years ago.
Global intermingling, which broadens the availability of possible partners, has reduced the chances of redheads meeting and producing little redheads of their own.
It takes only one red-haired parent to produce ginger-headed babies, but two redheads obviously create a much stronger possibility.

If the gingers really want to save themselves they should move to Scotland.

An estimated 40 per cent of Scots carry the red gene and 13 per cent actually have red hair.
Some experts say that redheads could be gone as early as 2060, but others say the gene can be dormant for generations before returning.
National Geographic says the gene at first had the beneficial effect of increasing the body's ability to make vitamin D from sunlight.

However, today's carriers are more prone to skin cancer and have a higher sensitivity to heat and cold-related pain.
The Daily Mail, in The Courier-Mail

ginger guy I worked with said that no matter who you with, the ginger gene is stronger so the kid would always be ginger.

also - gone by 2060? how on earth can that be true when I see loads of ginger kids about at the moment - are we going to kill them all? (I hope so)

He's talking shit. One dominant gene passed on would render the ginger gene having no effect on hair colour. You need recessive genes for the ginger hair colour to be passed on.

Noble, bald. No question about it. Ginger pubes.. no thanks.

Rather be ginger with a full head of hair and get some hair dye.

Just for men works better than Rogaine.

You need to consider that being ginger you're also going to be pasty white with veins visible in the merest sunlight. You'll have freckles all over and ginger body hair. you'll also smell of wee.

Gingesism is a disease and should be treated as such
