The Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess has been very supportive of me wearing kilts, if she didn't think I looked good in them I don't know if I would have the same confidence in wearing them. Because she does, I can handle any snigger or strange look. The opinion of my beautiful red haired lady is worth endlessly more.

In the supermarket, there's a redhead lass from Aberdeen at the checkout.
She's always delighted to see me and we often chat a bit about "things Scottish" ...really nice!
Yesterday the line at her checkout "forced" me to pick another...she noticed me and wasn't pleased (lightning bolts from her eyes )...all I could do was to look as guilty as possible...to safe my ****
She yelled at me: "next time I'll not forgive you!"
Better not mess with a redhead....

My own lady has brown hair with reddish tones to it, and beautiful brown eyes.
And she's got a temper to match any redhead I've ever met - so I'll have to agree with you, there.

I've always been a sucker for a red head.
Kim dyes her hair from time to time & to me she looks irresistible when it's that reddish auburn color.

Bruce Springsteen wrote & recorded a musical tribute to his red haired wife, Patti Scialfa, called "Red Headed Woman" that kicks off his "In Concert: MTV Plugged" album. It ends with the lines -
"Well I don't know how many girls you've dated, man
But you ain't lived 'til you've had your tires rotated
By a red headed woman"

As a natural red-head of Scottish descent, I'll second that!!!

A brunette's mating call: "I said, I am so drunk! Isn't anyone listening?"
A red-head's mating call: "NEXT!"
I do believe there is a missunderstanding of that punch line, "Next" as in Red heads do not need a pickup line. They are so sought after there is a "figurative" Line of men waiting for a chance to date them...
Am I right Techbear?

Not many red heads that I've seen down here...then again...I've not been on the lookout for a good many years..
I will agree, though, a red-head is best not messed with!

My dear wife was a stunning redheaded celtic lass when we married - now that we have raised two kids and are empty nesters - she's a bit grey and I have much less hair to fuss over.
In case you're wondering... you can take the red out of her hair but you can't take the redhead out of the girl!

Right on the first try!
When I told her about this thread, the friend who told me that joke said that the best present you can get a red haired woman is a gent wearing a kilt. Seeing as she has hair that would put a freshly minted penny to shame, I will defer to her judgement.
And while on the subject of flame-haired beauties.... A red headed musician I much admire, Heather Alexander, wrote a song a few years ago illustrating why it is a BAD idea to piss off a red head.
You may be familiar with the story of Black Jack Davy? Ballads tell of a young married woman who falls in love with a gypsy outlaw and gives up her title, wealth, station and family to travel with Davy. Her husband pursues her, and when he catches up with her, she says, in effect, that she would rather have a short live living as an outlaw with a real man than live a long, prosperous life with her husband.
Very romantic, but not terribly realistic. Heather explains in the intro to the song that, as an outlaw, he would most likely let the woman catch up, sleep with her, then be off at the crack of dawn while she still slept and taking anything of value she had brought with her. With his good looks and charm, he already has a pigeon picked out in the next town, anyway. But if he should ever try to pull this on a red head... Black Jack's Lady
