Best Answer

One reason could be that just as people do not like to be constantly called out by their skin color, red haired people do not like to be constantly called out for their hair color. They are people, and have names, and instead of addressing them as if they are their hair, it'd be best to address them for who they are; a person.

However, not all red haired people get offended when someone uses the word ginger.

Why do ginger people get teased?

People tease people with Ginger hair because there either jealous or your different and that you have orange or red hair. Also if you have a certain shade of Strawberry Blonde you get called Ginger. I have that shade of Strawberry Blonde that changes from the light to just naturally. Lately people say I have Ginger hair and call me ging or ginger. If this happens to you and you don't have ginger hair say, "Actually keep your made up facts to yourself." and walk of. If you do have ginger hair say, "Its the rarest hair colour in the world so I'm glad to be a one of a kind." and once again walk of.
