This article makes sense to me......I have never gone to bed with a redheaded lady or a virgin...even if my X told me that she was a virgin.....holy macro Batman, was my dick that small?
================================================== ===


New Scottish research has found that the Celts flaming red hair can be put down to the weather. With ten percent in Ireland and 13 percent of people in Scotland boasting of glorious red hair, there could be something to it.

The experts believe that the gloomy climate in Scotland has seen a deliberate genetic adaptation. Essentially this means that red hair helps to take advantage of sunny days and allows the body to absorb more vitamin D.

Managing director of the ScotlandsDNA project, Alistair Moffat, explained that the new research will be used to make a “ginger” map of the British Isles. They plan to map the number of possible carriers of the gene in Scotland to try and explain why there are so many redheads up north.

He told the International Business Times his theory. I think it’s to do with sunshine. We all need Vitamin D from sunshine but Scotland is cloudy,” Moffat said.

“We have an Atlantic climate and we need light skin to get as much vitamin D from the sun as possible.”

Sadly redheads also receive a great deal of abuse. The Centre for Equality Policy Research think tank recently claimed that redheads suffer more discrimination per head of population than ethnic minorities.

Having carried out an experiment they said, “A job applicant with ginger hair is seven times more likely to be rejected than a dark-haired applicant, and eight times more likely than a fair-haired applicant.”

Barbara McNulty, a lecturer in psychology at the University of the Western Isles, said that red hair still gives out deep cultural signals.

“Women, for example, are wild and quick-tempered, while ginger-haired men are unattractive and geeky.”

Watch out for those redheads. :o.... :)

"The Red Jews were a legendary Jewish nation that appear in vernacular sources in Germany during the medieval era until about 1600. According to these texts, the Red Jews were an epochal threat to Christendom, and would invade Europe during the tribulations leading to the end of the world.

Andrew Colin Gow studied the original German language texts and concluded that the legend of the Red Jews was a conflation of three separate traditions: the Biblical prophetic references to Gog and Magog, the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, and an episode from the Alexander Romance, in which Alexander the Great encloses a race of heathens behind a great wall in Caucasus. These traditions had some overlap already; Gog and Magog are among the nations trapped behind the wall in the Alexander Romance, and the only ones named in the version of the story appearing in Qur'an Sura al-Kahf (The Cave) 18:89, while The Travels of Sir John Mandeville explicitly associates the confined nations with the Ten Lost Tribes.

Many pamphlets circulated interpreting such events as the rise of Turkish power in the context of the legendary Red Jews. Philipp Melanchthon, for example, claimed that the Ottoman Turks were the Red Jews.

Kevin Alan Brook, among others, speculated, but could not conclusively prove, that the legend of the Red Jews was actually based on misremembered accounts of the Khazars. Indeed, in Expositio in Matthaeum Evangelistam, Christian of Stavelot refers to the Khazars as Hunnic descendants of Gog and Magog, as well as having been "enclosed" by Alexander, but having since escaped, demonstrating that the Khazars were indeed conflated with two of the three elements making up the legend of the Red Jews. Other medieval sources consider various connections with the Lost Tribes, owing to the Khazars' adoption of Judaism, and they are described in Arabic sources as having red hair, a trait associated with the Devil in medieval Germany and possibly the source of the term "Red Jews".

Alternatively, "Red Jews" refers to the Idumeans, or 'Edomites' who converted to Judaism a few generations before King Herod. Edom in Hebrew means 'red.'

"Red Jews" refers to Jews who have red hair and blue eyes from Turkey and Khazaria. King David had a "ruddy"(red complexion it states in the Bible."

Women who hail from the British Isle nations of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales are the most beautiful women in the world, in my humble opinion.

It sound gaelic. But it's a line from the classic 50s sci-fi flick The Day the Earth Stood Still.

Skin gets kinda pasty when steamed up, though some people may like sticky pasty.

Not me, I tried sex once with some kind of glazey food type stuff and it was a huge turnoff.

More details later. :)
