Yeah, I grew up with orange-red hair, and got shit about it constantly!
It wasn't until I grew my hair out, learned to make it curly, and it darkened to auburn that people ever said anything nice about it. And I still get the occasional insult, although now it's from a friend who's just joking.
And as for the temper thing, I'm very hard to anger, but when I was younger, once you set me off, it was on like Donkey Kong biatch.
And as for younger women liking/disliking the red hair, I find that not that many have liked my haircolor on ME...they always say "I'd love to have hair like yours". And older women absolutely love the hair.
