I know the popular (or is that not-so-popular?) view that redheaded girls tend to be easy to anger. Yet I know well over a dozen redheaded ladies of all ages; none of them are especially hot-tempered IMHO. Does anybody think that the redhead = hot temper correlation is a somewhat flawed generalization?

They are when you mount them from behind and say "your sister likes it this way too"

Ya know, you can stop at "are redhead girls actually hot?"
There's this one redhead chick I know... *grins* :D

It's so stereotypical of people to think that redheads are naturally hot tempered. I don't believe that at all. I think people believe that because the majority of redheads come from Ireland, which of course is known for having drunks, and the drunks in Ireland tend to be hot tempered.

I have know some that were and I have know some that were not.

I do like a hot temper though. :D

I just like them hot :D

Bah! I don't know which one to respond to!

You could have just asked, "Are most blondes complete idiots?" or "Are most brunettes frigid?".

What about the ones that don't have a sister...... not that I've tried this either way....

O rly? :D
Sorry, I can't resist - o rly is the greatest thing since sliced bread

thats right people, a red headed irish boy has joined this thread :D

um, hot-tempered girls are hot-tempered. i seriously doubt that it actually has anything to do with hair color.

The rule is basically the woman or man they talk about most.

I http://www.studip.uni-goettingen.de/pictures/smile/heart.gifhttp://www.studip.uni-goettingen.de/pictures/smile/gorgeous.gif

And I can assure you I know a red-haired lady that has a hot temper. Bite marks tell a story http://www.100megsfree3.com/fwc493/SmileyDirectory5/B/BulletNod2.gif

I still miss her, but she's married now and a mother and on the wrong side of the globe...

P.S.: You really dig those hed-haired chick, don't you? Why else would this be the third thread about the topic? ;)

Male or female, all of us redheads are a little unbalanced.

And very, very attractive.

I'm laid back and easy going(as has been all the redheads I've known in my life-not strawberry blondes- redheads), but if something does strike that flame and really piss me off I can get enraged. That rarely happens and couldn't happen often.. it takes a hell of alot out of ya.

And this just isn't about redheaded women, get a redheaded guy flaming mad and you got hell to deal with there also.

I'm mostly red, kinda strawberry blonde, and I don't have a really bad temper... I'm stubborn as heck, and when I do get angry, I get ANGRY, but yeah.

I dunno about girls but I'm a redheaded guy and I am generally more hottempered than my friends. But when not pissed off, my brother and I are ussually really cool, cooler than all our friends.

They are when you mount them from behind and say "your sister likes it this way too"Ah, Rodeo sex...

I remember those days...cup a breast in each hand and whisper in her ear "y'know your sister's are a little bigger.."

Then try to hang on for 8 seconds...




...er, not that I've ever done that. But back to the topic, I've had, uh... relationships with a couple of redheads (at least only a couple where the carpet matched the drapes) and I didn't find them any more hot tempered than other flavors.

In fact the most bat-shit crazy, insane tempered woman I ever knew was a brunette...

stop spamming this is oh here about 6 times, get a life

Yes i agree.-Knows no red heads IRL.

you irish?

Yes i agree.-Knows no red heads IRL.
that they are spamming or get a life you agree with

I think it would be pretty obvious that a generalisation of personality types which bases itself on the colour of someones hair is going to be "somewhat flawed".

but why have you posted this like 6 times ?

stop spamming please

Generalisations are generally flawed :rolleyes:

depends on the girl and her upbringng but it is a genralisation that is not true

Are redhead girls actually hot-tempered?

Of course. No generalization is worth a damn, including this one. :)

I suspect that some readheaded women use the "tempestuous redhead" image as an excuse to "let it all hang out." Personally, I like fiesty women! :D

Maybe he's asking the same question over and over again to wind up a redhead?

Why not ask one and find out?

You think that's a flawed generalisation? Half the bloody world are laughing at us (Australia) because they think we ride Kangaroos to work.

Don't post too much ... right now you're a "Cybersheep farmer." That's right up an Aussie's alley, ain't it? :D

Or at least that I was thinking when I saw this thread. I'm a big anime fan, though.

If I rembembered right Cabra West is red haired....and she is hotter than hell

Like any other person some are hot some are not. Maybe you only know some duds?

You mean you don't?
:eek:

DON'T LISTEN TO THEM! ITS A LIE!

Kangaroos are in fact, nearly the only means of transportation in Australia. The one exception being the odd dingo that growns to a freakishly huge size.

ROFLMAO - how can we forget the lovely Askua? But damn she's a little *too* hot-tempered for me....

i'm a redheaded girl and, well, i would say that i have a temper. whether or not those facts are connected is, well, up for debate.

but!

the interesting thing about redhair, and the reason why a lot of traits are connected to redhair, is that the gene that governs being redheaded is not actually a hair gene. all redheads actually have biological coding to have a different color of hair. the redheaded gene, and whether you have one or two of them, gets combined with your hair color to produce the final effect. if someone were blonde biologically, and they had one redhead gene, they would end up strawberry blonde, if they had two redhead genes, they would end up bright red. if someone, on the other hand, had black hair with a redheaded gene, it would produce the effect of "shiney" if they had one, and "glossy" if they had two. between there it ranges, dark brown hair with red genes produce shiney or glossy. brown hair with red produces chesnut and something else. light brown produces russet and something else.

the reason redheads tend to be particularly pale as well is that the redheaded gene causes a lowering of melanin production.

now, how this gets back to temper is that the production of certain chemicals can cause one to be quicker to anger, so the connection between redheads and a temper could possibly have a foundation if the redheaded gene caused varying production of those chemicals. or maybe having a celtic/irish background could as well.

I was actually reading a theory quite a while ago from a guy that says redheads will only exist for a few more generations. Apparently the gene is far from dominate and the more different racial backgrounds mix in the gene pool the lower the chances of someone getting the gene.

We're breeding them out heh, Hitler would be proud :-p

...........................ok, bad joke lol

Don't post too much ... right now you're a "Cybersheep farmer." That's right up an Aussie's alley, ain't it? :D

No, up a New Zealander's Alley

Generalizations are never 100% true, but generally redheads I've known are quicker to anger. I have known a few who are very mild. The same is true with blonds being, not dumb in the way of IQ, but very scatterbrained. Don't know if these are genetic or learned.

I did read lately though that a study was don't that indicates redheads feel less physical pain than others. This has helped them survive even though they have the disadvantage of sunburn.

i know lots of red heads, and none of them are hot tempered rather the opposite, and damn they are hot!! ;)

YES.

Indeed, absolutely, and in everyway.

I know from personal experience, that many things in nature, that are dangerous, are often red colored.
There is no exception on the human animal kingdom.

They come with a frikkin warning label.

Not only are they hot-tempered, they often are plain crazy too.
Not just mildly insane, either.

Ding-dong, whoohoo crazy!

Hot tempered? Not at all.

My sister's a redhead, hot tempered? Very.

Me:




*drool* :fluffle:

I'm a redhead...

I don't know if I'm hot-tempered, but I definitely have mood swings that would make Liz Taylor pale with envy.
That must be difficult enough for everybody who's close enough to me to actually get affected by them (I tend to be an extremely private person, so most people won't notice the slightest change in my behaviour at all), but it's tough on myself, too. The emotional stress has me close to snapping in two every few weeks...

My hair is just a tad bit deeper than yours in that pic.

All the (caucazoid)wackos I've met have been brunettes..

edit: well wait .. there was this blonde too.
