When I was growing up, blondes were very much glorified as the ideal. I was bummed as a little girl and wished I was a blonde. But personal experience seems to show that men really do prefer brunettes.

A few years ago I saw a TV special where men voted for the most beautiful women of all time. Only one blue-eyed blonde (Marilyn Monroe) made the list. The others were all brown-eyed brunettes. I can't remember all the winners now, but Raquel Welch and Sophia Loren were among them.

It's not surprising, Nea. I think most women look just fine the way they are and most of us are natural brunettes.
I've also seen plenty of women who are "blonde" who shouldn't be. They don't have the skin type to pull it off and it's not flattering at all. I think women look there best when they are real and not all dolled up with peroxide and fake hooters. It just makes them look desperate!

The answer is Sophia Loren. It doesn't matter what the special said.

And for the men who haven't seen her face, her it is:
