Actually, that has not been true for years. Most editors are leaning towards blond. You can use blonde optionally, but there is no such rule anymore in style books.

Those are just the same people who tell us not to say...

Stuartess--flight attendant

waitress--server

salesman--salesperson

african american--person of color.

Just more newspeak we conservatives should probably ignore.

And where did you ever learn to call it a cigaret?? My cigarettes right next to me dont have that.
