I credit my high school radio teacher for the idea behind the "foureyedginger."
Sitting in the main radio classroom, my fellow classmate and I planned our upcoming air check. Both of us had a good bit in common. We were both ginger enthusiasts, wore glasses, and were in show choir together. At one point our teacher turned around and said "the four-eyed gingers."
There is a negative connotation with the term "four eyes" as it has been slang for people who wear glasses. "Ginger" has also been a derogatory term for people with red hair. But that's exactly what I love about the name.
It is what it is. I can't change the fact that Iām naturally a red-head or that my eyesight is weakening. Every inch of us is imperfect and might not fully satisfy us. We are physically, mentally, and emotionally imperfect in some way.
The only perfection is the fact that we exist.
