    So I have red hair and I am indeed left handed. I noticed recently that most red haired people I know are lefties too. I said this was stupid but hey, why not Zoidberg? a poll..
    Prove me correct and amazing AH.

    Funnily enough, the only friend of mine with red hair is left handed.

    There could be something to it... maybe.

    where's the poll? ffs thread fail. for that no PhD for you! you blew it :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    I'm left-handed and left-footed, but I also have luscious brown hair.

    *runs finger through hair*

    *remembers head is shaved*

    Maybe, if more gingers are more left-handed, it's nature's way of making up for their ginger hair by providing them with a little bit of awesomeness.

    Red hair is a recessive trait, which means that a child must inherit one red hair gene from each parent. Recessive traits often come in pairs, and redheads are more likely than other people to be left handed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,066 ✭✭✭Washington Irving


    I'm a leftie but of the gingers I know none are left handed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 247 ✭✭MadameGascar


    I was just thinking about this today, its true of almost every ginger I know. What is the story with all the left-handed crazy red people? I'd really like to know the answer to this.

    I'm not ginger myself but do have an unfortunate amount of freckles indicating some mutation, and am indeed extremely left everythingd..it always makes me push the big red button!

    I heard Eamon De Valera brought over some Nazi scientists after World War 2 who did some genetic experementations and that is why we have so many Left Handed Gingers...

    Left handed gingers are the master race?

    Hmm. I know a good few lefties, none of them ginger. Likewise the gingers I know aren't lefties.

    Gingers tend to be more allergy prone. Maybe there is something to it.

    I guess the OP's still looking for a left-handed poll for the thread.
