International Kiss A Ginger Day

Another word for Ginger = Redhead!

So on the special day which is semi official and celebrated on January 12, if you come across a redhead please make sure to give them a hug and a loving peck on the cheek.

In 2009 Dereck Forgie started this day by creating a Facebook Group intended as a counter-event to the November 2008 creation of Kick a ginger campaign also on Facebook. The latter (kick a ginger day) is a horrid idea and resulted in ginger kids being assaulted at school which brought outrage and condemnation from the international community. Kiss a Ginger day is a loving way to show your appreciation for gingers.
