A Tribute to Blondness

Stereotypes are unfair right? Of course they are...sometimes...sort of. I mean, there are plenty of really intelligent blondes out there right? Well, after seeing a few videos on youtube, I'm starting to believe that blonde stereotypes are almost as concretely based in reality as say, gravity. Here are a few samplings:



Yes, France is a country.



This one is famously stupid, but is classic. I writhe in pain every time I watch it.



This commercial is marvelous.

A common misconception is that men prefer blondes to brunettes. But, the statistics say otherwise. But even if that were true, with instances like these, what makes blondes more attractive? Is it because they have more fun? Sure they say blondes have more fun, but do they know it? Here's a blonde lady washing her car (obviously having fun):



That should about wrap it up for our tribute to blondness. I hope you've all learned something.

Stereotypes

Stereotypes are unavoidable. And, of course, fun. But they wouldn't be nearly as fun or funny if they weren't based on truth. Yeah, we always strive not to label people, but what would we do without blanket statements and blatantly non-PC social commentary? Some would say utopia. I would suggest hell. But if you like hell, maybe it's one and the same. For instance, if I couldn't make a general statement like, "People who live in Boston are stubborn massholes," or people in LA are "fake-baking, bling-loaded chumps," how else could we address their social backwardness while still eliciting a chuckle? The fact is, people who get labeled generally accept it and laugh along with it. It doesn't mean they'll change, and in fact might create some pride in their mocked lifestyles, but at least it's been addressed in a way that is more enjoyable than the painful truth.
