Are blondes more popular than brunettes?

Question

I'm a natural blonde .Just curious to hear opinions

Answer 1

It's not about the hair colour...........definitely not!!!!, beauty is only skin deep.

Answer 2

This is more of an opinion question.Some people think of blondes as 'hot' (either gender) but if you're ever heard the term 'dumb blonde' thats an insult to blondes so really its all a matter of how the person feels about blondes.There is also a saying 'blondes have more fun' that is also an opinion considering your idea of fun might not appeal to someone else
s idea of fun.Brunettes on the other hand,are left alone they don't really have any saying they are not insulted but they are not complimented either.Anyway,this is mostly just an opinion of whther or not a person prefers to have a blonde bf or gf or not.. I hope this answers your question.

Answer 3

I dyed my hair brown for a couple months and didn't get nearly as much attention as I did when I was blonde. Thankfully, I went back to blonde. Brunette looked better with dark & sultry makeup which is nice for a while but let's face it...brunettes are boring & jealous that the blondes get all the attention, so they lash out saying they are trashy. I agree, bleach blonde does look stupid but I am a natural blonde and a fan of natural looking blonde with a few lowlights. Every blonde I've known that went to the dark side has always come crawling back to blonde! It's funner [unless you are a plain out boring person regardless of your hair color]

Answer 4

Where does the popular myth originate from?
The earliest blondes that mankind knows of was, presumably, the godesses of love Aphrodite and Venus. In ancient Rome a blonde girl was believed to be a prostitute, but once fair headed women entered their country, the Roman woman died their hair blonde with things like flowers. It is possible that the mainstream myth of the blonde as either virginal or a prostitute originated here. The protagonists in fairytales also often have blonde hair e.g. Cinderella and Repunzel. During the Victorian period of England blondes were the signifiers of innocence and beauty, here we can think of Lucy from "A tale of two cities" by. In the end, like many other stereotypes and popular myths there is not one specific point of origin. We can safely pressume that it is a mixture of these and other beliefs and experiences that lead to this popular myth!

Typical characteristics of the so-called blonde.

They are said to be more feminife.
They are softer, frail and vulnerable.
They are yielding both physically and psychologically.
They are, apparently, more other-worldly and closer to the divine.
Brunettes are apparently stronger (physically and psychologically), braver and more practical
Redheads are consedered to be wild and fiery, the archetype of fire.
Myth:Social construction?
It is obvious that most stereotypes are the exagerated forms of some similarities found within any group of people. When refering to the blonde, one must at least ask some of the following questions:



Is there any scientific basis to these statements?
Do these "expectations"change when a women dyes her hair?
Are these expectations real or perceived?


There are many possible answers to all of the above questions, though I think we can agree that there is not any real scientific evidence. Therefore, in order to prevent an argument, let us rather look at examples and the concept of 'the blonde'.

Marilyn Monroe
It is very ironic to see that the most famous blonde bombshell, Norma-Jean, did not even have naturally blonde hair.There are even a few rare photographs of her reading, one does not need to wonder why these are not as popular as those that show off her body!

Charlize Theron
Though she is a natural blonde, she dyed her hair brunette when she did an ad for an anti-rape campaign in October 1999. Possibly because the audience would much rather receive this type of message from the more practical brunette.

It is important to realise at this point that there is a difference between having blonde hair and being a 'blonde'. Blonde hair is a genetically constructed fact. But 'the blonde' is a symbol and a social construction! Whether it stands for innocence or impurity or even stupidity is up to the society that constructs it!


Jessica Simpson
Contrary to all this, unfortunately, we still have a representative of the 'dumb blonde' archetype amongst us:
The original blonde bombshell: Barbie
Barbie was first created in March 1959, by ..... She was based on another German created doll (though used for quite different reasons) called Lilly. She has seen many styles, clothes and accessories. She has had many roles and jobs, including housewife and running for presidents. She is over nearly fifty and her boyfriend left her only last year! It does not matter who you are or how you see her, this blonde bombshell has definitely changed every girls idea of the ideal women!

Legally blonde

Answer 5

Blondes catch the eye because of thier hair stands out, but many a times people find brunettes more beautiful and blondes more oomph.

Answer 6

I prefer dark hair but blonde hair suits some people, especially if it is natural looking.

I hate it when women who have dark hair dye their hair blonde it looks really tacky but on some women it looks natural even if it isn't. You have to have pale looking skin, not too tan. Tan skin loks good with dark hair (not very light).

There are loads of girls with dark eyebrows, Eastern European women trying to fit in with blonde hair with black roots and it looks terrible. Asd long as it suits you, you can have any hair colour.

I prefer dark hair because Elizabeth Tyalor had it and it looked really good.

Also does it matter if blondes are more popular? They are popular with the Western people and media but foreign men like dark hair and exotic looks.But who cares what men find attractive most don't have any taste anyway.

I think its embarrassing the way all these women dye their hair blonde to get more male attention. If you have a good face people would look at you with any hair colour.

Answer 7

Nope Ive been both and it makes no difference I used to be Blonde and now Im a brunette and Im just as popular as ever.

Answer 8

I dont think so. im brunette and i have always got more attention than any of my blonde friends!!

I think its more about being natural and confident within yourself. I think guys prefer a woman that is happy and confident within herself than someone that looks and comes across as fake (not saying that is how blonde people are) regardless of her hair colour!

Answer 9

well i don't think blonde's have more fun than anyother color it's their attitude, hair has nothing to do with more fun, it's the person, not hair color. I'm a natural blonde also but a brunette can have just as much as a good time than anyother color can

Answer 10

Blondes SEEM to be more popular than brunettes, but I am attracted to more than just hair color. Personality and friendliness win out EVERY TIME!!!

Answer 11

perfect woman, clever, hair would not be counted (yet 60% to blonde), established (makes existence much less confusing), warm of path. women people who're reliable and controlled of their thoughts as there are actually not many available who're. As that provides you an consumer-friendly existence, get experience of the stupid insecurities & you could surely talk approximately having happy circumstances.
