Hi Shayna-

Not only am I a girl redhead, but I am a BUSTY girl redhead-  
and since one can never get fawned over enough, I’ll take  
your advice and go directly to the site you mentioned.

You have been only too kind and welcoming, and I appreciate  
it very much.

Scotti  
(Formerly known as “Pudge”-I’m starting to like it!)

There aren’t? I’m going to kill that one SDMB veteran who put me through that embarrassing hazing ritual! :grr:

Just check in to the [Busty Redheads](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=23988) thread and announce your presence. You’ll be fawned over like you’ve never been before in your life once the guys get ahold of this information.

Shayna–even as relatively new as I am, I know this info is correct. I believe there are at least a few guys here who will fawn over a boy redhead.

NOT ME, THOUGH!!! 🙂

Um, not that I have anything against gays, of course. 😉

Stupid me. The above should read “I know this info is **IN** correct.”

Too busy celebrating my 100th post. ☹
