What about all the pain people get from living with a redhead?
Redanon… Which is not an elden ring boss btw
Mythbusters covered this in 2010 and proved the exact same result
It’s long been known that redheads often need a greater amount of anesthesia for the same effect than people with other hair colors, but nobody’s really known why. It seems natural that this finding would be related to that fact.
Of course, coz we have to
Well duh, you know having no soul and what not
HEY! I resemble that comment.
All jokes aside, the anecdote I provide is that I had walked on a broken foot for a week before I was informed it was broken. (it was my ankle.)
In my adult life I dealt with two broken bones in my foot for 8 years thinking it was just an annoyance and kept “cracking” my toe essentially breaking the bones all over again as they were healing.
It seems to be true from my perspective. Ohh, I also woke up in the middle of my wisdoms teethe being taken out. They had to up the sleeping dose.
I’m half ginger and my ex was full ginger.
We used to jokingly bribe people with Klondike bars for their soul.
😂 lol I enjoyed reading this!
Have a great weekend!
Not sure what the comment was but people are assholes. Whatever it was I upvote you my friend as I’m sure it was on point to the conversation whether it was popular or not.
All I said was “I really enjoyed reading your comment”— and then followed with “have a great weekend!”
Then a bunch of downvotes 🤷🏻People are indeed assholes.
Thanks for your comment
Interesting. I had developed shingles in my eye and described the pain as a 4/10. I felt more tired than in pain, but I’m told by others it’s the worst pain they’ve ever felt.
I think you’re on to something. We should be using a few lines of redheads at the front lines of the protests for a solid defence. We need people who can still operate normally with all that mace, tear gas, and batons going off.
We’ll call them “Shields of Brutality”

Study conducted by redheads.

Nah, I’m a little bitch when it comes to pain. So if true, I’m definitely at the worst end of the bell curve.
I think it doesn’t scale with redness either because my girlfriend is strawberry blonde and has the lowest pain tolerance ever.
Everyone else can have soul pain.
Contradicted by evidence, some years ago.
A study in a dental clinic used measurement of local-anaesthetic to measure how pain-sensitive redheads are…
It took … was it 10% more? Definitely more, pain-killer for the redheads.
The genetic-defect which codes for red-hair, and splotchy-skin, also codes for being more pain-sensitive.
It also explains why redheads are “more reactive” as lifelong-pain-sensitized people naturally would be, doesn’t it?
( I look Irish: my hair’s gone white, but the fur on my arms is still orange )
I talk to anaesthetists though work and they say us redheads need more to be kept under. It’s my anecdotal experience with local as well, I always tell dentists and other non specialists that I need more than usual, they never believe me and then they have to give me additional shots later cuz it still hurts. Some try to perform the procedure anyway, which I usually can’t cope with, so I’m not so sure I can handle pain better than others.
I dont much about this topic, but isnt anesthesia efficacy different from a person’s pain threshold?
It’s not contradicted necessarily. If redheads feel pain more often, then they have probably had to cognitively deal with higher levels of pain and may just be able to do it. Similar to how Buddhist monks can self immolate without reacting - cognitive practice at enduring discomfort.
I inherited my skin tone from my dad, a redhead, and I have to get extra anesthesia as well. I mentally handle pain VERY well (I’ve had doctors comment on my high pain tolerance), but it still hurts horrifically. I also think I have a much stronger itch response like many of my redheaded friends. The point is, I’m 100% FEELING that pain and then some, but I’m so used to feeling intense pain that I’ve gotten good at gritting my teeth through it.
Endure or have less sensibility ?
