I think so to a point. I think it is a natural aggression Irish people and people of Irish descent just have, like a chemical defect, but a natural one. I'm not from Ireland but my great grandparents are. All my family even after they moved to the states had been Irish, and EVERY one of them are natural hot heads when they get agitated, even friends I have that are Irish for the most part have that distinct "Irish temper" that stands out when let loose. So yes, Irish people have a temper, but that doesn't mean they're irrationally angry or bad people.

It is not accurate or fair to make generalizations about the temperaments of people based on their nationality or gender.

Why do redheads have a bad rep?

A bad rep??? They don't.. A lot of redheads are attractive... I'm one of them. I get just as much, if not more, guy attention as any blonde or brunette. All that stereotype just stems from the old saying that redheads are hot-tempered. I think what this question is all about is the old saying, 'redheads have hot tempers.' The answer is yes/no. Brunettes, blonds, black haired people and redheads can all have bad tempers. I'm Scottish/Irish and if cornered I can have one bad temper. However, I've learned to curb my anger more and am pretty laid-back, but if someone keeps hounding me the redhead couldn't keep up with me (medium brown hair with blond streaks.)
