redheads are often considered "sensitive".

Apparently they don't produce as many endorphins as blonds or brunetttes.
Now if scientists could come up with an explanation for the "crazies".
stay safe.

It's a gender thing.

I dont recall ever meeting an average -looking redhead. They all seem to be on one end of the spectrum or the other. Just sayin'.

You calling me weird?

as to the crazies and fellow red heads...
a guidance councilor once tried to tell me there is a correlation between red hair and ADHD. I could not find anything online to back it up.

I don't have anything empirical to back this up, but it is my understanding that it is the cyclical fluctuation of estrogen and progesterone that make women crazy. I know a man who takes these hormones... it's an interesting insight into the whole thing.

I wonder if they studied brunettes who dyed their hair red? If so, it would go a long way toward explaining my wife.

This is not the first study to indicate such an idea. There have been also been other studies that have indicated that redheads have more temperature sensitivity as well.
I have had more than one anesthesiologist tell me that, in their experience, redheads generally end up requiring more anesthetics than their non-ginger counterparts.

The plural of Anecdote is not data. However, my personal experiences bear that out. I woke up a little during an emergency appendectomy I'd had back in '92, and then they were really giving me a really hard time over getting my urine output going in post-op because of the upped dose of anesthesia they gave me halfway through.
I also woke up while getting an electrocardiogram catheterization a year and a half ago. I spoke up. "Oh... hey, I can feel that wiggling..." And the cardiologist was "Hey! Give him some more!" :laugh:
