Dare I say it, to the British redheads are so bad they are practically Irish, which is to say they are almost subhuman in the British mind. Yes, there is still that sort of bias there. Muzzies are okay though.
My wife, who grew up in England, admitted to me that most Brits dislike the Irish. So my wife had sort of a puzzling attitude when she discovered my love of Irish folk music. She evenutally grew to like Irish music and looked forward to our trips to the Milwaukee Irish Fest every August. Then last year she discovered she has an Irish ancestor who came over during the Potato Famine. That completely changed her attitude towards things Irish. We visited Ireland last Spring, and the wife can't wait to go back.
