I do have unique hair, but TECHNICALLY it isn't the "red" or "orange" color, it's a little darker and I don't mind having it but allot of people see it as "red hair".
I also have fair skin but apparently I make the "red" hair and fair skin combination look normal somehow.
Some retards have called me some names about it but it was weak-sauce in terms of how clever it was as the best insults they could express didn't really do anything other than point out "red hair".
But does it bother me to be referred to as "ginger"? Nah, people just don't know what else to call me. I have never been called "ginger" as an insult (or if someone has then wow, that's kind of sad that it was so unnoticeable), it was usually more jokingly than insulting and from my very own friends. More often than calling me ginger, they try to figure out just what the hell I am to begin with.
Ginger or not, even the worst insults people have tried to come up with didn't really affect me and neither should it affect you, I mean come one, those are just lame ass insults that don't really have any effect.
It's like me saying "haha! BRUNETTE!!! HEY EVERYBODY! LOOK AT THE BRUNETTE! HAHA!"
...
and? What's wrong with Brunettes?
