THE STIGMA OF GINGERITY



The prejudice against ginger kids extends beyond the infamous South Park episode alleging that they have no souls. Cryos International, the world's largest sperm bank with operations in over 65 countries, issued a ban in September of 2011 against contributions from red-haired donors. Except for customers in Ireland, there was so little demand for carrot-tops that the product containing red-haired DNA was unmarketable.

However, the tide has apparently turned, and Cryos is once again embracing red-headed donors as of June of 2023.
