I know a family like that. LOL

I'm guessing that 'red head' and 'female' are linked very much in the mothers genome. It'd be interesting to see what hair colour a boy would have.

Marianne said...

Maybe. I couldn't say, those friends of mine that I talked about had girls only, as well.

Probably not related but, as far as I know, 85% of ginger cats are male. So it wouldn't surprise me that there's a strong link between hair colour and sex.

I couldn't say, I know too little about this. Maybe someone wrote an interesting book about it.

I looked for info on any correlation between red hair and gender. I found this: “We also confirmed earlier findings that red hair is naturally more frequent in women than in men.” The report said pre-natal estrogen influences the development of red hair.

Interesting, VV. I think I do know more girls than boys with red hair but never really thought about it and probably would have put that down to coincidence. Thanks.
