Is the future orange?

A sperm bank is refusing to take donations from red heads. Does this mean the end of ginger hair, asks Jonathan deBurca Butler.

THE world of red heads was recently dealt another blow in its fight against gingerism (yes, this is a real term) when the largest sperm bank in the world decided it would no longer take sperm from people with fiery fetlocks.

Cryos International, which has been responsible for over 18,000 pregnancies since 1991, has said that it is now turning down redheaded donors because there is too little demand for their sperm.
