No, really. Some blonde women are intelligent.\nI'm so damn sick of having to work twice as hard to prove that I am just as smart, if not smarter than women (or men) with darker hair. I got good grades in school. I was in GATE. My IQ is 152.. I am not an idiot... but I am sick of being called a dumb blonde!

Sharon Stone is Mensa.  The problem is that for every ten women who have brains, it only takes one airhead to reinforce the stereotype.

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.

I can't make up mind if you're stupid or just a mindless twat.\n\nWhat you're saying is that because men are so stupid and weak they can't be equal with a woman in any other way than to physically over-power them - perhaps that is the case with you but I know how to think.\n\nAs for your really asinine idea about courts and "feminazi's", do you believe that individuals are not responsible for their action? So because idiots can't control their tempers these men should be given a lenient sentence? Quite honestly why would an abused women turn to a man or group of men for support after a man has been beating or abusing them?\n\nDo you know what IQ means? Is yours in double figures? Did you really write your question or did you have one of your idiot mates write it for you?\n\nYou're so dumb it makes me embarrassed to be of the same species as you.

I don't think so. I'm not anyway. I prefer brunettes with blue eyes but I don't specifically look for that. I did find this though...\n\nI was reading "Why Men Don't Listen and Woman Can't Read Maps". It's a book written in a humorous manner, about the scientific differences between men and women, and why we act and react the ways that we do. \nanyway, in one sections it says \n" WHY BLONDES HAVE HIGH FERTILITY \nBlond hair is a sign of high estrogen levels and accounts for men's strong attraction to blondes. It is an indicator of fertility and is the likely explaination of the phrase "dumb blonde". Dumb blondes, so the jokes go, have high fertility and low mathematical reasoning. After a blonde's first baby is born, her hair darkens because her estrogen level drops. It darkens even more after her second child. The reduction in estrogen levels is why there are few natural blondes after age 30."\n\nisn't that odd? there's an actual scientific reason for why men are attracted to blondes, hmmmm. I don't know how it was determined about the low mathmatical reasoning part nor do I believe it. Hope this helped.

It's just a guess.  Keep in mind too, that intelligence tests don't score that high anyway.  The Wechsler tests (WISC-IV, WAIS-III) go up to an IQ of 145 and the Stanford-Binet goes to 150.   (So when you see actors on talk shows that they were tested when young and had an IQ over 200- they are lying.)  IQ tests have these ceiling limits because it would not make financial sense to invest the money to develop items that could discriminate between individuals with higher IQ's, and it would be too difficult to individuals with higher IQ's to use in the norm group.

I think this might be a reason why women are smarter than men.

Some people have claimed this, but to my knowledge no research has found any corelation between hair color and intelligence.\n\nAlthough some research has found that hair color can influence social relations, so people might treat a blond as being ditzy, but the blond would still have the same average intelligence as anyone else

There is a double standard in this country. People say they want someone who is smart and that your looks are not important. However, this is not true. This is true for both men and women. The world judges everything by the cover. It has been proven time and time again that someone who looks good will be more likely to get, for example a job, than someone who is smart. I will still say it is better to be smart than being a model, but guess who gets paid more....

Not enough, especially young men.  Every college I look at, the percentage of women is higher than men.  What's the deal with that?!  Do I have no hope for finding a decent, smart guy to marry???!!!

That is not a valid question. However, on an average, and in general, Males tend to have better "reflexes".\n\nBut there are many women out there who are better then most males!

Logically, if you believe in myths you are less intelligent.\n\nI don't need a harvard study to prove that.\n\nAnd from all of the brilliant IQs found above, you can also conclude that the majority are not just less intelligent, but liars.

Its true, having blond jokes is awful. Ok, so we have to admit that the context of the joke is funny, but if we are looking at the subject, it is downright derogatory to be implementing such demeaning images and attitudes of a blond person. People have adopted these jokes and have formed real impression of what a blond person does or thinks. Does the type of hair make a person stupid?? I clearly think not. Hair does not make you any better or any worse than anyone. The brain and its capabilities determine how smart or dumb someone is. If what is said about blonds is true, then, blonds would not have been accepted to Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Oxford, or other high level institutions, and neither would they have survived. But there have been smart blonds in the society, who have achieved so much and has made a positive impact in the lives of others. So what happen to brunettes and redheads? Why no joke? Clearly, the blonds have been totally segregated and mistreated. This is prejudice, and unless we stop stigmatizing people, then it can be detrimental to many person's reputation in the future. All persons are equal, irrespective to colour of skin, or hair, or where someone was born or their socio-economic status. What varies is how someone applies themselves in life...... and THAT IS MOST IMPORTANT!

Gender has nothing to do with intelligence. If you were as smart as you think you are, you would know that.

I think it has less to do with an academic lifestlye and more to do with a natural predisposition.\n\nMy IQ is >140, but sometimes I can be dumb as a stick! I think that our brains are just wired differently. We relate to the world differently, and things that are perfectly logical to us sometimes make no sense to anyone else. \n\nPlease don't think I'm an elitist, because I am most definitely not. But to me common sense refers to the perceived common knowledge or understanding of the average population, who comprise the majority. Because we are a minority group, our understanding of the world is uncommon and sometimes considered a flaw rather than just a difference.\n\nOf course, these are the kinds of people you will find in career academic and highly specialized professions because of their intelligence, but their apparent lack of common sense didn't "happen to them" as the result of a sheltered existence. It is just who they are.
