"Already a 2017 study by Professor Werner Habermehl of Hamburg, an important German sexologist, had highlighted their [redheads] particular inclination to sex."
Further noting that redheads are more sought after by the opposite sex.
"For many, redheads represent, in short, the sexually perfect alter ego, the lover of their most hidden and unspeakable dreams."
This referenced the following article;

The work also touches upon some of the cherished topics we've mentioned on this blog. Such as the short story Rosso Malpelo, by the Italian writer Giovanni Verga.
Overall Breve storia dei capelli rossi was a really enjoyable read, and gives a great overview of the topic. Along with providing plenty of interesting information about red hair (and some very handy maps). All with a slight Italian lilt.
It also contained an extensive list of famous Italians with red hair at the back of the book.
I look forward to reading it again, this time without having to reach for Google Translate ..once my Italian improves.
