The Truth About Redheads and Their Sex Lives
TLDR A study has found that redheads, both natural and dyed, have a more active sex life compared to people with other hair colors. Redheads also require more anesthesia during surgery due to the MC1R gene, which is linked to red hair and is involved in hormones that stimulate pain receptors.
Timestamped Summary
00:00
Redheads, including those who dye their hair red, have been found to have a more active sex life compared to people with other hair colors, according to a study by Dr. Werner Habermell.
03:24
Redheads have been stereotyped and maligned, and there have been false claims that redheads are going extinct due to the recessive gene that causes red hair.
06:37
Redheads are not going extinct, but it is possible for them to die out if everyone with the recessive gene for red hair were to die, and they require more anesthetic during surgery.
09:24
Redheads require 20% more anesthesia during surgery because their pain gateway is shut down differently when unconscious, and the reason for this is not fully understood.
12:03
Redheads require more anesthesia during surgery because the MC1R gene, which is linked to red hair, is also involved in hormones that stimulate pain receptors, and the pigments in red hair may overstimulate the brain's pain receptors.
