No more so than anyone else. It's just an "old as the hills" stereotype. That's a hard word to spell.
You have to admit that dumb blond jokes are funny though and some actresses are hilarious in playing the dumb blond roll. They have become rich doing this. If a lot of blonds are dumb, what does that make all of us men who are "chasing" them?
I'm not really sure I'm spelling blond right. Spell-check doesn't seem to know either.

Not every blond is dumb anymore than all grass is green. The dumb blond is a stereotype. Every person knows a few dumb blond jokes, but I have to tell you, I have know quite a few terrifically smart and witty blond women. Conversely i have know some rather dull and self centered red heads and brunettes. I am sure a statistician could give you a mathematical formula that would work with a given population to give you a percentage. If you are a blond, don't feel self conscious, you don't have to be a stereotypical person :)

It sure does look like it sometimes but there is no proven fact that blondes are dumb. There are lots of dumb people out there and they are not all blondes. Just look at some of those sitting in office for example.

Well, if EVERYBODY says something, it must be true?
Stereotypes usually focus around individuals, and a host of individuals, like Marilyn Monroe, have made a fortune creating characters that were the ultimate in dumb blondes. Marilyn was actually very smart -smart enough to realize that men like to feel superior, and so the dumb blonde image that haunted her for much of her life.

No...the dumb blonde is a popular-culture sterotype typicallt applied to people with blonde hair most frequently women. Meaning the "dumb blonde" is attractive and popular but lacks intelligents and academic sense! the 1925 anita loos novel - genteleman prefer blondes: the illumianating diary of a profeesional lady , was ablout a blonde empty headed signer...studies believe this is where it started from ( the orgin)! hope this helped!!!

some probably are but that's not just restricted to Blonde's. blond is only a hair colour it's what's in there head that makes the difference not there hair. it's just a saying that's used about BLOND women means nothing just a joke really. if you are a BLOND woman just ignore it I'VE met several blond women that DEFINITELY NOT DUMB. so all you blond and not blond women enjoy. I don't care what your hair colour is. I'll still love you

Blonds are only dumb when they think that they r. Why people pick on blonds is because some true blonds have really pretty hair plus it's easy to pick on them

No. That is just a crazy stereotype that people play up on.
Marilyn Monroe made her money acting like a "dumb" blond but she wasn't even a real blond

Blondes are not dumb...we say they are because blondes appear (most often) to be so beautiful and delicate. Now, how are you going to tell all the other women that blondes are beautiful and smart...that's not right! We brunettes, redheads and black haired girls have to be smarter or else it wouldn't be fair! LOL!
