Why don't people realize that red hair is not a common Irish feature?

It is because that feature is constantly displayed in cinema, television, print media, greeting cards, etc. I have to say Americans are probably the worst for this. They have a tough time accepting anything that isn't just like they expect it to be.

People may hold stereotypes about physical traits associated with certain nationalities based on limited exposure or cultural representations. However, the prevalence of red hair in Ireland is not as high as some may assume, and it is not a defining feature of Irish identity. It is important to challenge stereotypes and recognize the diversity within any population.

∙ 15y agoNo, same that not all Irish are red haired. My gradfather was red haired, and he was a Scot. An acquaintance of mine is red haired, and he's Syrian 100%, with no Irish anywhere near his genealogical tree.
