Finding them required long, arduous hunting trips in which numerous males died, leading to a high ratio of surviving women to men.

So the women stayed at home? How chauvanistic.

This is an interesting theory.

According to the study, north European women evolved blonde hair and blue eyes at the end of the Ice Age to make them stand out from their rivals at a time of fierce competition for scarce males.

Snort!

However, Jodie Kidd, 27, the blonde model, disagrees with the theory: “I don’t think being blonde makes you more ripe for sexual activity. It’s much more to do with personality than what you look like. Beauty is much deeper than the colour of your hair.”

The last picture of Jodie Kidd I saw, she looked like an underfed 11-year-old boy. Not that that would have anything to do with her mileage.

Surely light hair and eyes have more to do with making the most of available sunlight in a colder part of the world (e.g., for conversion to vitamin D) than with 'attracting men'. Saying that women evolved larger-than-neccessary breasts to attract male attention (a la Desmond Morris) is one thing-that's a sex linked trait. But men have blond hair and blue eyes too, so that makes the theory rather silly, IMO.

Why did cavemen drag their conquests by the hair...?

Because if they dragged them by the foot, their [ahem] would fill up with dirt...

According to another theory, Neanderthals were fair-skinned and red-haired.

"A study by the World Health Organisation found that natural blonds are likely to be extinct within 200 years because there are too few people carrying the blond gene. According to the WHO study, the last natural blond is likely to be born in Finland during 2202."

At which point red-heads trully will rule the world...
