    As a ginger myself, no. If theres another redhead in my orbit, people almost habitually ask if we're related.

    Peoples first visual identifiers are skin tone, hair style, hair color, and body type. If two redheads both have short hair, and neither is fat..they are gonna look a lot alike. Facial identifiers are actually the last one, and only people you know well are discernible strictly by that unless they have some extreme facial feature.

    Black people and asians with standard short hair can often look alike for similar reasons, but it's probably best to not admit to that. White people would look alike as well, but in general our hair is quite varied.

    I wouldn't say "racist," but you're just seriously missing out if you see all ginger women looking alike.

    Female Ginger cats are rare making up less than 20% of orange tabbies. They also have an M on their foreheads and tend to be larger than other cats.

    Such a simple question to get so many things wrong. ;)

    One, to be racist means you believe you are superior. Do you think you are fundamentally better than a ginger?

    Two, is ginger a race?

    Three, Christmas?

    Four, Lucille Ball dyed her hair. She's a brunette.

    It's hard to get so many things wrong in one brief sentence. Congrats!
