Put them on the endangered species list.
The incident of re-hair in Libyia is the same as Ireland. Some of the aboriginies in New Gueina(sp) and Australia have red-hair.
White people will be extinct shortly thereafter...
Hope this guy is wrong I love red heads
There is a young lady who poses for figure drawing, a true redhead. Very bright red hair.
What a stupid theory. The authoer obviously knows nothing about genetics.
A good friend of mine, who lives across the cul-de-sac from me, has 5 children, and all of them are redheads...but the mom has naturally dark brown hair, and the dad has naturally light blond hair...all 5 children are theirs, biologically, and all 5 have very bright red hair...
People who dont know this couple, often make the wrong assumption, that their children are all adopted...this is untrue...none are adopted, they all belong biologically to this couple..I had thought that at least one of children, would have favored either the mom or the dad, but none of them do...all these children greatly resemble each other, not just in hair color, but in their facial features...in fact the two older girls, just a year apart in age, look like identical twins...the 5 children look as tho they all belong in the same family, but not with the mom and dad that they have...
Its really kind of weird...

As a certain carrier of red-hair genes (got the offspring to prove it) I am available to any Irish lassies interested in fighting this terrible prospect.
Artificial insemination is not an option.
Both my wife and my daughter, alas for me, two women in my house and both are red heads!!!
I love redheads. My first two girlfriends were redheads, and my wife is one (with redheaded grandparents and nephews) and two of my sons are redheads. The trait is not going to die off that soon.
Help....I'm fading....
Did my part to stave off this worldwide catastrophe! :-)
I'm a redhead, my ex is a redhead...our two boys are redheads...and our daughter is a strawberry blonde...with definite red highlights.
Neither of my parents were redheads...but my paternal grandmother was...the German side. My Irish maternal side tended towards black hair. My sister got that. My elder brother was somewhere between my red and her black.
Genetics are an amazing thing, truly.
This analysis seems incorrect. Unless those with redheaded genes actually have fewer children on average, the percentage of red-headed genes will be the same. Of course, it's possible that the gene will be diluted, but redheads will still occur. Reporters don't generally get these things correct.
Ah, my wife is of the fair-skinned, blue-eyed, auburn-haired Irish persuasion. Tall too. My only daughter is strawberry blonde but as she grows, her hair is getting a little darker and may ultimately become auburn. I'm Scots-Irish and blonde gray with a bit of red in the beard. The girls do have a bit of the fabled firey temper, but rarely directed at me. Thank God.
I'm the only one of the four of us to have green eyes - actually green/gray.None of my nephews or nieces have green eyes, most have different shades of blue.
I was blonde until I was about 4, then my hair got darker and darker brown, then the red highlights came out when I was about 13 or so.
I haven't been my "natural" color in over 10 years. I've been bleached blonde, dirty blonde, red, and two-toned when I was between colorings which sometimes spans months.
I wonder if I let it go back to natural if I'll still have the red highlights.
