Answer 2

I was reading something a long while ago..a theory..that blondeness was actually a genetic mutation to improve survival. Men were more attracted to this new blond gene, and so the blondies were more desirable...which resulted in them being better taken care of.

Maybe blond jokes are the brunettes' way of increasing their survival chances? Maybe if they make enough jokes, this will turn off the men, which will result in more men picking brunettes...which will mean that the brunettes get to pass on their genes to the next generation...and thus survive through their children.

I don't know. It's a guess.
I'm a brunette by the way.

Answer 3

Its because a lot of blondes that you meet seem to speak before they think, thus making a lot of remarks that can be taken in several different ways. The general public usually takes said comments in the worst possible way. and labels then get applied to these people, thus dumb blondes. Additionally, a some blondes seem to help that label by deliberately behaving dumb.

Paris Hilton...i just think she is naturally dumb. that has nothing to do with being blonde.

Answer 4

Don't worry, It's just a stupid joke.
I am a brunette and I know so many blondes who are cleverer than others. Just ignore those who say that blondes are dumb.

I'm smart and blonde and no one has ever sayed nothing to me cause they know I'm smart if you show people and represent yourself as a smart person they'll respect you!

You are very correct, but we do like our fun. Sorry its at your expense. My daughter is a natural blond and very good natured about it. She also is a major university graduate with a dual degree, post grad and all the other stuff. Hang in there and take it all lightly. Nothing serious is intended.

Answer 10

Look at the media and the entertainment industry and the way they portray attractive blond women. Its as though all they are good for is to look at and have sex with. Until we don't except that portrayal anymore and let it be known that we wont it will continue.
