Why do people say blondes are stupid?

It is an old adage. We probably will never know where all the blond jokes started from. We just picked up on what our parents have told us and the blonde jokes we all heard. I do not know why. I agree with you it is not fair. You seem like you are pretty smart and you are deeply hurt. My best advice to you is I know it is hard when you hear the slide remarks but pay no attention and do not pay them any attention. As long as you know different who cares what they think they probably do not know you so how can they judge you.They probably are doing that to hide their imperfections or maybe they are intimidated by you but please keep your head held up high. Remember you are better than that and you are better than them so keep smiling.

I like blonds. I do not believe that they are stupid. Some blonds like them too.\n\n\n\n\n# Mom is dead!\n\nA blonde goes into work one morning crying her eyes out. Her boss, concerned about all of his employees well being, asked sympathetically, "What’s the matter?"\nTo which the blonde replies....."Early this morning I got a phone call saying that my other had passed away."\nThe boss, feeling very sorry at this point, explains to the young girl. "Why don’t you go home for the day.....we aren’t terribly busy now. Just take the day off to relax and rest."\nThe blonde very calmly states......"No, I’d be better off here. I need to keep my mind off it and I have the best chance of doing that here."\nThe boss agrees and allows the blonde to work as usual.... "If you need anything, just let me know."\nWell, a few hours pass and the boss decides to check on the blonde. He looks out over his office and sees the blonde hysterically crying!! He rushes out to her, asking,\n"What’s so bad now........are you gonna be ok??" \n"No......" exclaims the blonde. "I just got a call from my sister. She told me that HER mom died too!!"\n\n---x---\n\n# Want me to paint for you?\n\nA blonde was recently fired from an M&M factory for throwing away Ws and peeling the shells on the candies. Therefore, she needed a new job to support herself. After going around town asking if anyone needed work done, she found a man who needed a painter.\n\n"I'm here for the paint job," she said.\n\n"Alright," said the man. "Here is the paint and your brush. I want you to paint my porch behind the house."\n\nThe blonde immediately went to work painting. Within an hour, she was done and decided to put on a second coating.\n\nAfter she finished, she returned to the man for her pay. She said with satisfaction, "I not only completed the job, but I even put on two coats of paint! By the way, that isn't a Porsche out back. It's a new BMW.\n\n---x---\n\n# Are You Really Sure?\n\nA blind guy on a bar stool shouts to the bartender, "Wanna hear a blonde joke?"\n\nIn a hushed voice, the guy next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, you should know something."\n\nOur bartender IS blonde, the bouncer is blonde. I'm a 6' tall, 200 lb black belt. The guy sitting next to me is 6'2", weighs 225, and he's a rugby player. The fella to your right is 6'5" pushing 300 and he's a wrestler. Each one of US is blonde. Think about it, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?"\n\nThe blind guy says, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times."\n\n---x---\n\n# Three blonds on death row\n\nThree women are about to be executed for crimes. One's a brunette, one's a redhead, and one's a blonde.\n\nTwo guards brings the brunette forward, and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She says no, and the executioner shouts, "Ready . . . Aim . . ."\n\nSuddenly the brunette yells, "earthquake!!" Everyone is startled and looks around. She manages to escape.\n\nThe angry guards then bring the redhead forward, and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She says no, and the executioner shouts, "Ready . . . Aim . . ."\n\nThe redhead then screams, "tornado!!" Yet again, everyone is startled and looks around. She too escapes execution.\n\nBy this point, the blonde had figured out what the others did. The guards bring her forward, and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She also says no, and the executioner shouts, Ready . . . Aim . . ."\n\nThe blonde shouts, "fire!!"\n\n---x---\n\n# In the bus\n\nTwo bowling teams chartered a Double-Decker bus to go to a tournament. One group was all blonde one group was all brunette. The brunettes rode on the bottom and the blondes on top. The brunettes we

Good question!  I suppose it's because natural blondes are in a minority.  However, I wonder if the fake blondes really realize how artificial they look.  A lot of people did have naturally blond hair as children, and I think that a few highlights in light brown hair can be very attractive.  But a lot of brunettes really spoiled their natural beauty by trying to completely change mother nature.\n\nI'm not upset about the fake look, but it's a non-issue with me.  Those of us who are aesthetes realize how ridiculous many of the people who look who try so desperately to be what they're not.\n\nI must laugh at the response of the person who said that he didn't like "natural blondes' personalities!"  Can you imagine saying that you didn't like "natural brunettes' personalities?!"\n\nWe do love to pen people into little boxes, based on one identifying characteristic, don't we?  As you know, all African Americans share the same intelligence, wealth, and personality traits.  Same with blondes.  And religions.  And......\n\nAddition:  I'm a heterosexual female, but I hope you don't mind my saying that you're one of those rare individuals who exudes a natural beauty.  It's fun to experiment with different hairstyles and clothing, but I hope you don't do anything to change what you were given naturally.

Blonde jokes are a class of jokes which make light of the stereotype of the blonde woman (or, more rarely, blond man) as unintelligent, sexually promiscuous, or both. Like all humor based on stereotypes, blonde jokes are found offensive by some people. However, they tend not to be as controversial as racial humor or other forms of dark comedy. Many are, in fact, variations on racist jokes that have been adapted specifically to make them less offensive.(source 1)\n\nAnd also, there is the stereotypical "valley girl" that were caught a lot on video tape in the 80s and they just happened to be blonde in most of the media coverage.  And those girls for whatever reason wern't too bright.

I think it is because they are insecure.  They are such morons that by talking so freakin' much they think other people will think they are smart, when it is actually just making them look like even more of an idiot.

because blondes are considerd to be the pretty lady in society, and if you are pretty your supose to be more interested in your looks then i your education. so thats basicly why blondes are considered dumb.

It is a stereotype...if you're dumb,you're dumb..that's it,it has nothing to do with the color of hair or your race or anything....It's stereotyped because of blondes that are TRULY stupid..like Jessica Simpson and Brittney Spears...etc.

I actually feel that they are dumber than the rest of us sometimes. This is obviously a false belief that has stuck in my mind because the prejudices my mom had while I was growing up, but truth is a person's hair colour is not an indication of intelligence or anything else really.

blonde by choice here, kinda tall, lil above average, yet most people find me intelligent and treat me with respect.  it's not just the hair, it's also the image we reflect to the world.  if we say "like" a lot, if we say "y'know," if we crack gum or twirl our hair in our fingers and dress like a bimbo, then we're treated as stupid and easy.  if a woman is attractive and blonde, and has a good bod, yet respects herself, she commands respect from her peers.  if she invites that type of treatment, then shame on her if she doesn't like it.  it's all in the presentation babe.  hope this helped!!

When they answer questions like me!!!\n\nI think being stupid is just an expresion that is used for any person that at the moment didnt take any time to think of the question he made or of the answer.\nOr it could also be a person that lacks the capacity to intelegently evualuate situations because of his childhood or because of some hard punch to his head.

Hollywood made the image of blondes being dumb. I think most men find blondes as being more fun or wild; sometimes easy because of the personalities that come with blondes. It seems blondes get a lot of attention, therefore they are more outgoing. I don't have a preference for blondes, but I would take "smarts" over "dumb" anyday.

It's a hollywood stereotype. It would seem that the blondes think they can automatically project themselves as sexual, and unresistable. It's all about image. Real people like to be with someone who really likes them for who they are.

stupid comes from a lot of folk....we all do stupid here and there..........the trick is to not make it a way of life.

Because people want to " fit in", at any cost. And blonde = fun, prestige, etc. A study says only 1 in 10 blondes are \n"true blondes".
