Ginger Pride Rally First For Australia

AUSTRALIA TO HOST FIRST EVER REDHEAD PRIDE RALLY

Gingers, family and friends of gingers, and plain-old ginger enthusiasts, rejoice! Aussies are finally getting their very own Ginger Pride Rally to bask in the glory of our copper-haired friends.

Hosted by Buderim Ginger on April 16th at Federation Square in Melbourne from 10.30am, the public rally calls for all redheads to come together and for the first-time ever in Australia, to celebrate Ginger Pride.

The inaugural festival will see redheads take back their identity as they meet with fellow gingers and armed with flags and signs march for Ginger Pride, congratulating each other on quite literally sporting the rarest, most spectacular genes in the world.

Why? Because let’s face it, being a ginger at school wasn’t a walk in the park for anyone.

Buderim Ginger Marketing Manager Jacqui Price says, “It’s no secret that gingers are used to being teased for their flaming locks and freckles, experiencing unfair prejudice and misrepresentation since the dark ages. And it’s time we say ENOUGH!”

“Modelled on the highly successful Redhead Marches and related gatherings already happening in countries around the world, Australia will be the next to step up with its own Rally and finally celebrate the beauty of being a redhead.”

Hahahaaaa, good marketing ploy by Buderim Ginger!

I hate being a redhead 😞

The rally is a lovely idea but it's sad we have to do such a thing so we can be accepted in society.

Jen, hair colour is irrelevant.

If you are of certain manner, I would want to hold you, play with you and hope you have similar beliefs to me.

We could have adventures together and looks don't matter.

Only similar interests would determine our path, looks wouldn't be thought of.

Two redheads I can't stand, the arrogant Mick Hucknall and mouthy Chris Evans. Both so far up their own posteriors, it would need a rope ladder, cleats, and crampons to extricate them.

We rescued a ginger kitten just after we were married; we called her "Strawberry". She had a fantastic personality and character, would eat anything and "talked" constantly; definitely an 'in your face' cat, she was wonderful.

When I was a redhead a few years ago (and I dyed it) I had lots of fun, and compliments

I just love red hair. .

Does this guy look like a young redheaded Derryn Hinch to anyone else?

And why the term carrot tops? Carrot tops are green
