My whole family is blonde and not dumb. Husband is a chemical engineer and daughter is a Geoscientist/Hydrogeologist and they are both SMART blondes, and natural at that. Blonde jokes are so mean and hurtful. I prefer the dumb brunette jokes....

Jokes are jokes, and not intended to be hurtful. I can’t help it if people are way too thin skinned.

It’s funny you feign “hurt”, yet think it’s ok to be hurtful in the next breath. Telling, VERY telling.

PS, hydrogeologist isn’t really something I’d be proud to put on my resume, it’s a step above mud boy. Chemical engineer? Not a bad starter job.

PPS, My GF and my kids are all smart blondes. So there. My comment was about the dumb bimbo making it harder for the non-dumb blonds out there by perpetuating the stupid stereotype.

Have a great day!

Well, then, you’ll want to know that the only person to win 2 Nobel Prizes (1 for Chem., 1 for Phys.) was blonde and Polish besides. Still, I only know 1 blonde (and I know at least 10 very intimately) who doesn’t color her hair. It seems par for the course for blondes to start coloring at age 18 or earlier. Knowing that, I can only arrive at 1 conclusion which is that in it’s natural adult state, blond
a. has a very narrow range of variation
b. is not a good color and has a tendency to look like dishwater.

Blonde jokes mean and hurtful? I’m blond, Polish, a senior citizen and just slightly overweight. Know and repeat all the jokes about all these groups. Assume you had a sense of humor at one time or you wouldn’t be on this site. Might want to think about getting it back.

I dunno, my siblings and I are naturally various shades of blond and we’re all smart and going to engineering school and the like, and we all love blond jokes. Besides, they’re not supposed to refer to blonds in general, mostly the sorority-type girls who have bleached their hair blond and gotten a fake tan and implants and think a deep conversation is ‘Omigod, so I, like, got this Prada bag, and it totally can fit, like, my WHOLE chihuahua in it!’.
