Why does everyone love blondes

Other research, which included more than 12, American men using a popular dating website, found that men showed a slight preference for blondes over other hair colors, said Jena Pincott, author of the book, "Do Gentlemen Really Prefer Blondes? Some research has shown that single men prefer pictures of blonde women if embedded in a series of brunettes. But if the men see mostly blondes, brunettes become more attractive to them. Scandinavian men, who are surrounded by blondes from birth, often say they prefer women with darker hair.

But, she added, "Even the most dazzling shade won't help you stand out if everyone has it. IE 11 is not supported. For an optimal experience visit our site on another browser. Politics Covid U. News World Opinion Business. Share this —. I mean, this is why we have billboards, and models, and fashion magazines. At the same time, I also recognize most mainstream ideals prefer otherwise.

Well, after coming across a recent study, it appears science provides evidence — despite popular belief — men might actually favor brunettes. According to Deborah Arthurs for Daily Mail , men find women with darker hair more sexually attractive. As shown by the data, around one-third of the men polled claimed to find brown hair the most attractive; whereas, a little under 29 percent of men favored women with black hair.

Oh also just because something is recessive does not mean it is likely to die out in a population because recessive genes can be hidden behind dominant genes so recessive genes can reappear where as dominant genes cannot. Probably the Caucasian look arose in the population because people with that genotype were much healthier in a snowy environment than darker people who were suffering from vitamin D deficiency.

The main thing ancient man would have been looking for in a mate would be health. Albinos are killed to this day in Africa, red heads were often killed in Europe, and Caucasians definitely made a good go at ridding the world of Americas indegenous population so maybe in ancient Scandinavia families of blondes waged bloody war against brunettes and eliminated them from the region and since it happened before writing, no one knows about it.

I also see people dragging race and racism into this, and all I can think is: Were you all never taught that race and racism are artificial, social, constructs? Because they are. However, I would discount the opinion of any racists, since it shows ignorance and hate far more than knowledge and understanding. And, since when was the opinion of a racist about race ever demonstrably correct in terms of any true morality? I have yet to see an example and doubt same exists.

Anyway, leaving aside social enculturation, subliminal messages in popular culture, sexism, and racism, I will now throw my own wild card into the ring:. However, these are the looks that really get to me, and girls who look like this really turn my head more than any other girl.

Again, a look just means physical attraction, nothing more. I believe in the golden rule. For one, what is thought to be attractive changes with culture and time and 2. What is blondes are more fertile suppose to mean? That they conceive more easily or simply have more children? Fertility rates vary considerably based on culture and even the economy. White people have considerably less children than minorities. The only thing this pursuit proves is that there is considerable bias in science that anyone with half a brain can see.

What a throw back to the days when science attempted to prove that black people were inferior. I think the only smidgen of truth is that some blonde hair is very noticeable but I think black hair elicits the same response, as it also looks glamourous and shiny.

There are attractive and ugly people of all types. All of those diseases are shown in whiter skin which what normal blonde would have. If anything, this article want to secretly prove why white girls are better. Completely agree. The writer is obviously a blonde white girl. Forever, blonde white females have been told that men prefer them, and that is simply not true.

In almost all of them, brunettes had many votes, and blondes barely had any. This article is complete nonsense. I was part of the study at YALE. Over men were polled and questions. The most sought after woman was the one with brown hair and light skin and blue eyes.

Yes men may take second looks at blondes, however to pair up and bare offspring it was overwhelmingly 90 percent brown hair blue eyes. Article is nonsense. Fuck stereotypes. No blonde could ever be more of a bombshell. I have actually had grown men get on their knees and bow to me in public. Like many Italian women I also have an hourglass figure, with a 13 inch waist to hip differential, even smaller than the supposedly ideal 12 inch differential.

Basically I look like an Italian goddess. When a man sees me, nothing else is going to turn his head. Men may double-take at blondes because their bright hair catches the eye. But I have seen many times the look of intense envy from blondes when I walk into the room, and obvious insecurity around me.

Blondes always feel a brunette will get the man. In Roman times prostitutes bleached their hair blond to signal their availability. Blondes are more approachable.

Usually I am about ten times smarter and funnier as well. I look about ten years younger than I am and act younger than most women my age also. Blonde hair may be a more youthful look, but a Brunette is more womanly, and mysterious.

My experience is that men like long hair, and that is actually more of a fascination than a specific hair color. That is a difficult impression for a blonde to create. Usually only insecure men prefer blondes. It is part of our racist aesthetic also that blondes are a status symbol. Usually that type of man just wants a very young looking woman. To me that smacks a bit of the kind of creepy, deep insecurity that is part of a personality type that is like a pedophile.

They need to feel they are older, more experienced, smarter, and have a psychological advantage over a woman. A seemingly young and dumb partner makes them feel that, and many blondes seem younger and dumber than they probably are. Beauty is what men like. Blondes tend to be plain and look washed out when they are not wearing makeup.

A beautiful brunette will beat a beautiful blonde anytime with most men. Like for example, Kate Middleton. However, in recent years the trend has definitely been more toward darker hair, with medium skin, and light eyes.

Nearly all of our Miss Americas have been brunettes. Go figure. Ironically I am totally attracted to light haired men. Most girls prefer tall, dark, and handsome. For me that describes my dad and my brother! So yeah, I prefer men with light brown hair, and blue eyes.

I agree. I was a blonde a year ago, very platinum too. At first, men looked and everything etc…then I got fed up, no one was looking anymore.

I became very plain and washed out and I looked older. I been told I look like a young Monica Bellucci with my hair like this.

But he is just not into it as much as blonde. He is Arab from Turkey. This makes me insecure and thinking about dyeing my hair blonde again or at least making the ends blonde. I dunno, men are such a nuisance! High five, girlfriend. I would never ruin my hair with a bottle of bleach. Light blonde hair literally reminds me of a little girl. You sound like an incredible beauty…. Not unless they smoke or drink heavily, and even then black, Hispanic and Asian women still age better than white women.

Everyone is an individual and they like what they like. Science has nothing to do with what you prefer. I think that only applies to those that bake themselves in the sun and try to achieve an unnatural tan. So that is a bunch of BS..

These articles are just social engineering projects pumping out bogus statistics and skewed studies to the masses. Another dumb, biased article. Especially since lighter skinned people are more prone to disease, aging earlier, and acne than darker skinned folks and also because anyone can dye their hair blond nowadays so its no longer rare or special.

I know many, many ugly blondes with bad skin and cellulite and many, many very attractive brunettes. But yes, the blondes get more attention because their hair is lighter. It is good to have an ugly blonde around because the men come to the group then notice the beautiful dark girls.

And, uh, no, women do not prefer blonde men. But I do have to admit that I am a bit diditzy sometimes, but I know plenty of brunettes who are too. My IQ is above average at , but I am treated like a dumb blonde.

Men prefer blondes because like red heads they are rare. The majority of the population is all the same. WHICH men? Blondes are not rare in California where I live. Of course, they are not natural blondes, but almost every white female is a blonde.

And theyare usually alone or in groups of other blonde females. Blonde guys are almost undateable here. Even blonde females do not date them. I do see a lot of guys prefering blondes over any other type of hair. And I think it is because blonde hair gives this angelic,submissive,kind,bright note,makes the person appear as such-even if though the person is in fact a total bitch,manipulative,etc. With redheads and brunettes one would expect a little bit of intensity, passion, drama, but not with a blonde.

They look too angelic for that. His ex, the woman he dated before me,is also blonde. So he prefers blondes. Brunettes and redheads like to get admiration and atention too. Oh come on.

Blonde or brunette. But blondes are more rare. Interesting i suppose but if i am correct men prefer brunettes, despite what our society or the media imposes. Wow, everyone is so biased lol. All hair colors can be gorgeous if it goes well on the woman. Of course skin tone, eye color, etc. I am a natural brunette, I have always had brown or black hair but I have been very blonde for the past few months and I love it.

I feel I get the same attention as a blonde as I did with brown or black hair. For example, eye color, eye shape, her smile, her skin tone or even her personality may be what really attracts to people. If men did prefer women with blonde hair, it is because blonde reminds a person of youth. A lot of children are blonde or have very light hair, as they age, hair generally gets darker.

Men like blonde because it reminds them of fertility. I have dirty blonde hair but highlights. I wish I could be a natural one but im not. You can all suck out because brunettes are beautiful, and will always be. Although stupid guys pick blondes, the best men choose brunettes. Who ever writes this things has issues with what lies beneath the subconscious. I am dark haired Caucasian man with hazel eyes and muscular most of the time. Blondes are a dime a dozen. A busty blonde is so hard to get and so probably used up that i never gave them a second glance.

Always blondes are attracted to me. Real bummer. Many people have dark hair and extremely light skin. Infact, most Caucasians have dark hair. This article is nonsensical. I think there are just too many variables for this article to be accurate, it really depends on where and how you where raised. If, for example, you were raised in a house consisting of only brunettes or the only people you admired just happened to be brunettes you would most probably grow up to prefer brunettes.

I did not mean to be racist, I simply used Chinese as an example. Also I am blonde however I tried my best not to favor blondes in this reply. I am pretty sure most woman prefer black haired guys, and red head guys, and a dark brown haired guy too. But his rad hair suddenly became the most beautiful hair in the world. The ability to desire which I have as a human being allows me to feel this for him, after I opened my heart because I love him.

From your comment, you are dating his hair and you fell in love with his hair. It was the defining thing that made you pick him. Can I guess that you are between the ages of 18 and 22? I prefer dark-haired, dark-skinned men with beards and thick eyebrows. I have black hair and golden skin…. Redheads , perhaps? In the study, researchers from Augsburg University in Minnesota showed men pictures of various women with black, brown, and blonde hair of different lengths, and asked the participants to rate each woman on perceived age, health, physical attractiveness, relationship potential, and parenting capability.

The results revealed that, compared to women with dark hair, men found light-haired ladies more attractive overall, but more specifically, perceived them as younger and healthier.
