Dumb Blonde

Q: What do you call it when a blonde dies their hair brunette?
A: Artificial intelligence.
In the past decade, blondes, specifically girls, have become the but of all jokes. They are stereotyped as being dumb, and the most unintelligent of the human race. In the past, I have let something "not so smart" slip out of my mouth, and in an instant, my stupid comment is based on my hair color, and I hear about it for the next couple of months. How can the color of my hair determine weather I am educated on a certain subject or not? The blonde stereotype seems so ridiculous to me. It is automatically assumed that because of genetics or perhaps choice, that that person is dumb.
Because the blonde stereotype is so prevalent in society, girls with natural or even artificial blonde hair seem to start believing that they have a reason to be unintelligent, and even act dumb. This is common in young teens girls, when the blonde jokes are all at an all time high with kids their age. If the jokes were on brunettes or red heads, then teens with brunette or red hair would start believing that they are unintelligent as well. Society makes blondes act the way they do, and hair color should have nothing to do with someone’s intelligence.
