Is it a wrong when people say all Irish people have red hair and green eyes?

Dont Irish people have dark hair, pale skin, and blue eyes?

There are many different types of Irish. There is the red hair green eyed type, that's me Although there are more of those is Scotland than Ireland. There are black Irish, dark hair, dark eyes. And there are the Blondie's. We get everything! It's what makes us special.

I'm 100% Irish. And I have blond hair and blue eyes thank you. Sterotypes piss me off.

Depends, before or after the pub?

Yes one of my friends is Irish...she has very dark hair and bright blue eyes. Depends on what area of Ireland you're from.

Not necessarily. It's a stereotype. Just like saying most African Americans have black hair and brow eyes. Believe it or not, it is our nationality that decides factors like this, all from God's 12 tribes, that eventually became races.

Ignore stereotyping. :-)

that's just as likely to be true as all people of certain race or ethnic group being lazy, having hook noses or being tight with money. It is a stereotype, but rather a more pleasant one then some that spring to mind.

Most of the Irish people I've met in my life had brown hair ... some had almost black hair, but none of them had red hair!! None of them had green eyes either - I think they might have all had blue eyes, it's possible that some of them had brown eyes and I've forgotten it but yes, most (or even all) of them had blue eyes! (I've only known about 200~300 people who are either Irish or of 100% Irish descent though, so don't take TOO much notice!)
