Get the redhen mug.Somebody with red hair, ranging from ethereal strawberry blond to sensuous dark auburn. Red hair is a recessive gene and often skips a generation in families.
Blue, green, or grey eyes and peaches-and-cream complexion often go hand-in-hand with red hair, often with freckles. Redheads almost always burn in the sun and are thus vulnerable to skin cancer.
While redheads are admired in the United States, in Britain there's a strange hostility to them; perhaps because of historic association of red hair with the Irish and Scottish (whose populations are porportionately 10% and 13% of natural redheads, respectively), "gingers" are often openly insulted and treated with disdain, plus there's the bizarre claim that "gingers have no souls" (although given the "comedian" Carrot Top, it's understandable).
Still, redheads are also stereotyped as fiery-tempered and very lustful. This is part of the adoration of redheaded women, although redheaded men don't get enough attention.

Depending on where one is, a redhead is often called "carrot top", "ginger", or "rusty"; the association with the "comedian" is unwanted, "ginger" can be comedic or insulting, and "rusty" hardly sounds like a compliment.

Get the redhead mug.The punchline to the joke that is New Atheism. Someone who posts to r/atheism, usually submitting generic quotes about science, unwarranted fallacious Facebook arguments, and "memes" about God not being real. Thinks science and religion are polar opposites. Tends to mistake European nativist propaganda for atheist propaganda due to their hatred of Muslims. Usually openly bigoted against religious people.
Jim is a total ratheist. He said that all religious scientists are secretly atheists.
Ratheists have successfully formed a community where outright bigotry is the norm.
Sam Harris said religion is worse than rape. Ratheists love him for it.

Get the Redhead mug.A person with red hair ranging from strawberry-blonde to auburn. They can be attractive or unattractive, and do not necessarily have a fiery temper. Many blondes with very little red tint to their hair will claim to be "redheads" when they are actually blondes.
Girl 1- Don't you just love my red hair?
Girl 2- You have very nice hair, it's true, but it's not even strawberry-blonde. You're not a "redhead."
