Do you have red hair? My girlfriend has red hair.
Actually, I do have red hair. That means your girlfriend and I are both part of only 1-2% of the population.
That is crazy, is that based on world population?
Yes, that's the whole human population, though red hair varies from reddish brown to deep Burgundy.
Yeah my girlfriends is more of a reddish brown.
So is mine. We're probably both of northern or Western European extraction, because red hair is more common there.
Yeah it is more common in ireland or scotland right?
Yes, indeed, the western fringes of Europe. Most of my ancestors were Scottish and Irish.
That is interesting, I have some scottish ancestry myself.
Really? Many of our ancestors probably came from the Scottish Lowlands before moving to Ulster and then America.
