Today, I overheard my dad's friend complaining to my dad that his new baby boy is a ginger. I continued listening, and heard my dad saying, "Yeah, there's nothing worse than having a ginger." I'm his daughter. I'm a ginger. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I finally took the courage to introduce my ginger boyfriend to my family. It didn't go too well. My dad asked if he could call him "Ron Weasley" and my 13-year-old brother asked if he had a soul. Now I'm single again. FML
Today, I told my parents that I wanted to donate blood. My dad helpfully interjected, "Sorry, they don't accept blood from gingers." FML
Today, I got dumped by my boyfriend because he is tired of everyone giving him shit about my ginger hair. FML
Today, over a family dinner, my husband and I told everyone that I'm pregnant. My father frowned and said, "Again?", my 9-year-old daughter started crying, and her brother smirked and yelled, "Up the ass, no babies!" FML
Today, I got married. My dad wanted to see me before the ceremony in my dress. The dress I wore was not my usual kind of dress, strapless. The first thing my dad said, "Ginger! You've got boobs!" Not exactly the father-daughter moment I'd envisioned. FML
Today, my friend's father got me mixed up with his new wife when telling stories for his wedding speech. Everyone noticed. The new wife was not pleased. FML
Today, one of my dad's work friends came over. As he was leaving, he complimented my dad on having three "strapping young boys." I informed him that I'm a girl, and I have a hormone imbalance that causes me to have a lot of hair and a deep voice. I guess my dress didn't give him a clue. FML
Today, I overheard my dickhead dad telling my girlfriend that she's too good for me, then asking if she really wants to settle for someone like me. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I broke the news to my parents that we're having a baby. The first words out of my dad's mouth were, "It's probably not yours." FML
Today, I was with my dad at the supermarket and this guy was checking me out. My dad yells at him with a grin, "I know! I make beautiful babies!" FML

I'm pretty sure this girl is from the UK, because as far as I know, that is the only place where people seriously have a bias against gingers. I once dated a guy from Scotland and he told me how he and his friends would corner this ginger kid and chant "giiiiingerrrrrrr" at him. Though I'm not 100% on this, I'm pretty sure it has to do with Britain vs Ireland, and Irish people seen as subhuman by British for such a long time... Regardless, the dad and his friends are an assholes for having that bias.

lol; that's pretty harsh for your own father to say. i wouldn't want to have a ginger kid either though; gingers aren't very nice looking. it's the freckles; yuck. are you sure you're a ginger though? you can have red hair without being a ginger. anyway; if it bothers you that much; just dye your hair and cover your freckles with makeup

Gingers are ******* hawt though. Although maybe that's why he said that. Or maybe he just knew you were listening in and wanted to **** with you.

#135 i believe its more of in this corner people that cant make a joke without harrassing someone else because their own self esteem is so low in this corner people who only make jokes mimicking what they see/hear on tv in this corner people who are trying to be nice to the op, like gingers, or just dont find demeaning other people funny.

That's not so bad. He just doesn't like ginger.

He might have been saying it sarcastically, since his friend would likely have know you're a ginger. Unless you're moody and nuts. But it's more likely to me that he didn't mean it literally.
