LadyRainfire -> RE: Redheads and pain.... (6/29/2008 11:20:14 AM)

Ok, ok, ok...... I saw "Redheads" and had to come running..... [:D] I'm another redhead (well, DUH, the picture gives it away!) and I tolerate some pain incredibly well and other pain, FORGET ABOUT IT. Even as I type this, I'm home ill in pain (bad pain, not good pain) from an infection and swollen lymph nodes. I think each person has a different pain threshold and I've never been keen on the generalized statement "redheads don't feel pain like other people". Some do, some don't, so what? It's that way regardless of whatever hair colour you have. This reminds of when I had my first son and the nurses insisting that I hemorraghed simply because I was a redhead. Funny thing, I went on to have 2 more children and never once hemorraghed with them. [8|] Another myth.... Redheads are bleeders. Anyway..... if ya wanna have fun and poke redheads (or blondes, brunettes, or whatever!) go ahead and have fun. But I wouldn't have any preconceived notions about pain tolerance based on hair colour. [:D] And I'm still working on my freckles hoping they'll become one big one making me look really tanned......
