Because the stereotypical blonde is pictured as "attractive" at the expense of "intelligent". In the West, at least, attractive women are said to have less impetus to develop their minds.
So everyone else (brunettes, readheads, black-haired and grey-haired women) are always and exclusively intelligent? Wow! That is AWESOME! - I think I will buy myself a dark haired wig.
Or, could it be that dumb is dumb, as nasty is nasty, as nice is nice, no matter what the hair color?
It is a stereotype that is not true or fair. Hair color does not determine intelligence, and attributing certain characteristics to someone based on their appearance is not accurate or respectful. Intelligence is a complex trait that varies among individuals regardless of their hair color.
ABSOLUTELY NOT! Some blonds are brainy. No way.I'm blond and my i.q. falls in the genius range. Hair color has no bearing on intelligence.
Hair color has nothing to do with the intelligence of a human being.
I don't think many people do think blondes are dumb. It's just one of those generalisations based on the false assumption that facial characteristics determine how we think and act, which isn't true. Any sane thinking person will reject this idea and reject racist concepts too that seek to generalise also.
As you can see blonds are called dumb not of hair colour but a lack of study
automatically blondes are naturally pretty so they spend most of their time shopping around for cosmetics, shoes clothes everything so if you are a blond and you are offended that's because you are naturally pretty.
Half yes half no. You see, the stereo type 'dumb blonde' comes from this: When you are intelligent, you have more copper and zinc in your hair. Copper darkens the hair color, and since blondes are the lightest hair color... you see what I mean. But I am a blonde and I have straight A's. So it can go both ways.
babes trust me its just a stupid and rude joke. blondes are just as smart as brunettes. and if people think different then theyre either a sexist male or a jealous female. keep your head up! dont change your hair color because of what others are saying. have a great day beautiful!
this is not true. People with any coloured hair have dumb moments. Saying that blonde people have dumb moments is stereotyping.
The stereotype of "dumb blondes" likely originated from Hollywood films in the 20th century that often portrayed blond women as naive or unintelligent characters. This stereotype perpetuated the idea that blondes were more concerned with their appearance than their intelligence. Over time, this stereotype became ingrained in popular culture, although it is important to recognize that it is a harmful and inaccurate stereotype.
"I sure am - I'm struck dumb by how ugly you are." Struck dumb means momentarily speechless, which you can explain to the people calling you dumb because I can tell they're to dumb to get it. Or, if you want to keep with the times, you can say, "Your face is dumb."
The oldest simile for 'as dumb as' is 'As dumb as a doornail'. Others include: As dumb as a wet noodle. As dumb as an unpowered computer. As dumb as a library with no books.
There is one movie titled "Dumb and Dumber", released in 1994. It was directed by the Farrelly Brothers and starred Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels. They also made a sequel called "Dumb and Dumber To", released in 2014.
The dumb blonde stereotype is unfair because it perpetuates the idea that intelligence and appearance are interconnected, reinforcing harmful gender stereotypes. It overlooks the individuality and capabilities of blonde individuals and undermines their credibility. Such stereotypes can lead to discrimination and hinder opportunities for blondes in various aspects of life.
Because blondes are dumb.
100% smart and 0% dumb
You know how people call girls with blonde hair 'dumb blondes'? And how there are jokes about people like brunettes and redheads and blondes, and the blondes are always saying something dumb? Usually now, when you act sort of off or dumb, people say you are having a " blonde moment." which means you are having a dumb moment.

Not every one thinks blonds are dumb. the reason however for the dumb blond jokes stem from the the dumb blonds they used to portray in the old movies.
Sterio type
bottles are hollow and since blondes are stereotypically dumb they don't have a brain there for their head is empty so they are empty just like bottles are empty they are making fun of dumb blondes
Blondes do not intenially act dumb. Honeslty, blondes aren't dumb at all! I have a lot of friends with blonde hair and they are in high honor roll. Now, whether or not you chose to behave dumb is YOUR choice. People just think it's funny! It's part of life, everyone should be proud of there hair color. (and MUCH more!)
