LOL.

The use of the word blond in the title is interesting. Taken on its own, it could literally refer to an elderly blond man, but the headline writer seems to suppose it conveys the idea of a young female.

In any case, it makes her seem like a pretty cunning girl -- not the stereotypical "dumb blond."

But my point -- which I get to slowly -- is, this thread is useless without pictures!

Blonde with an -e denotes a female.

If the term blonde makes you think of a man, elderly or otherwise, stay away from brokeback mountain.

I was always taught that blonde referred to men, whereas blond referred to women.
