Just wanted to let everyone know how rare RHL’s are… (Thanks to a post by Roxanne)

Approximately 4% of the world population carries the red hair gene (and the number of redheads are continuing to dwindle, for info as to why go here.

The ratio of people that are left handed is at about 13% (for info, go here).

So using simple math, if 13 percent of redeads are left handed (at 4%), then 13% of 4% is a much lower number, .52%, a little more than half of one percent. :)

Summary: We are .52% (1/2%) or a little more than half of one percent of the world population
