Happy National Kiss A Ginger Day! On January 11th, everyone is encouraged to find your favorite redhead and give them a peck on this day.
Created to support a more positive spin than its counterpart, National Kiss a Ginger Day brings sweet kisses to redheads who may have once been teased for the color of their hair.
The red hair gene is recessive and requires two copies for it to present itself. Even then there is no guarantee it will. If both parents have the gene, there is a one in four chance that they will have a redheaded child.
Most natural-born redheads (yes, some of us like the bottle) have brown eyes, followed by green or hazel. Coming in at one percent of the world’s population, the blue-eyed ginger is the rarest kind. So, if you give one of these ginger’s a kiss, consider yourself lucky.
Many auburns feel like outcasts for having red hair. This celebration empowers redheads to feel confident, look amazing, and rock their beauty. Red hair is more than a color; it’s a lifestyle.
Besides, redheads are rare. Less than two percent of the population are crowned with red hair. And those that are may very well be left-handed, too.
HOW TO OBSERVE
It’s easy. Kiss a ginger! And it goes without saying, if you don’t have permission to kiss your favorite ginger, don’t. Use #KissAGingerDay to share on social media.
HISTORY
Canadian actor Derek Forgie founded National Kiss a Ginger Day in 2009 as an alternative positive celebration of redheads uniqueness as opposed to another day that could often accelerate into bullying.
