    I wouldn't have thought so, but an interesting question. You never know!

    No. Short answer. However, there is something interesting about redheads that is true. App. 2 yrs. ago was reading an article in Scientific American on genetics. The article stated that the redhead gene is slowly breeding out of the human race, that it is now around 12% of the population, as opposed to over 20% of the population just a few centuries earlier. They estimated that the gene for redheads will breed out within app. 250-300 yrs. Interesting, huh.

    Stereotype much?

    Because redheads have a fiery temper doesn't mean they commit more crimes and receive more death penalties!

    They should think themselves lucky that they are not the first born, as they are usually eaten by the mother.
