Ginger? Sorry, I Don’t Speak Ignorance.

Azalea
Grand Rapids, MI

I’ve made fun of my entire life for my pale skin and red hair. It’s honestly really annoying and once the whole “ginger” thing is brought up I no longer want to talk to that person anymore because it represents their ignorance and the fact that they can’t just accept that I’m a redhead without using a derogatory name. I can imagine that’s so many people feel when an attribute about their person is different that the “norm” and it’s very unnecessary. Our differences make us distinctive and awesome.
