IT'S a truth universally acknowledged: gingers cop a lot of flack for the colour of their hair, but a Coast company is on a mission to change that. <\/p>\n
In a show of solidarity and passion for the continuation of the red-headed blood lines, Buderim Ginger has pledged to support every ranga who donates sperm to a fertility clinic. <\/p>\n
\"It's no secret that gingers are often exposed to being teased for their hair and skin colour, experiencing prejudice since the beginning of time, Buderim Ginger group marketing manager Mark Henderson said. <\/p>\n
\"Let's use this call to action to further foster acceptance and diversity in the community, and give our copper-haired friends the celebration they deserve. <\/p>\n
The company will donate a carton of ginger beer to every redhead who can provide proof of their sperm donation, in the form of a confirmation letter or email from a clinic, a photo of a donor holding a fertility centre pamphlet or even a selfie out the front. <\/p>\n
Sperm donor matching service Co-ParentMatch reported only 2% of its sperm donors were redheads, but a survey by Buderim Ginger revealed 39% of people would be willing to date only a redhead in order to keep the ginger gene alive. <\/p>\n
Another 24.5% would be willing to donate or use ginger sperm in order to support the cause. <\/p>\n
\"We've come a long way since 2011, when one of the world's largest sperm donation banks, Cryos International, was actually turning away ginger donors, Mr Henderson said. <\/p>\n
