I've been a longtime lurker on here, this is my first post.

Having red hair has an effect on pickup. The fear of it affecting your outer game can often lead to, in my case, a decline in inner game. We live in a society where mocking people for their skin color in a social environment is taboo, but it's fine for hair color. Girls can dismiss you solely for the reason of having red hair, but for some it interests them. The other day, walking back to my dorm someone in a large group of people shouted "hey ronny" at me, I just ignored it. The fear and possibility of walking with a girl and getting called a ginger has a strong negative impact on my inner game. Also, I live on a small college campus where I think I'm recognized by everyone for the way I look since I stand out. (I wore a bright pink polo the other day, so that hopefully showed a confident attitude seeing as I stand out anyway on account of my hair, which is an element I can't control.) It's easy for me to develop a reputation fast because of this, and I currently have made good and bad (unconfident) impressions on different people.

So are there any more of you guys with red hair out there?

Can anyone (obviously not just redheads) here give me some advice for this situation?

In return to the community I offer these tips for approaching redheaded girls: Referring to them as redheads might bother them, but if you refer to them as a ginger you're not going anywhere. Do not try to neg them on their hair color, they've heard it before, know what you're doing, and it will be offensive. All it will do is leave you with a girl that dislikes you.
