Question

Why do people stereotype blondes as dumb? :/?

Answer 1

because...

if a blonder person...

say's something which is not intelligent...

the person hearing it...

will think that the blonde is dumb...

stereo types...

Answer 2

Because they say that blondes do whatever they want to do, and are not afraid to do whatever.

Answer 3

Cause they get caught the most saying things that doesn't give them a high IQ.. most of the jokes came from real experiences.  I think its the hair dye, cause my daughter had to dye her hair for a show and she was almost white blonde for a about a month and during that month she didn't seem to be able to do her class work, or talk in a straight line.

Answer 4

because influential women like Jessica Simpson reinforce said stereotypes. I don't believe all blondes are dumb, I have really dark hair and I consider myself dumb. Intelligence is a combination of genetics, socialization, and many other things (not hair color).

Answer 5

Because those people themselves are idiots.

by generalizing in the first place they are assuming that a "blond" is some type of subordinate of human or some thing, when all labels we use to describe people are cultural. that goes for all generalizations.

so to the enculturated people out there banging on your screens saying "what about races, nationalities, cultures?!"

none of that exists any where except in our heads

they are only interpretations of an organism that fluctuates in description. mere assumptions of a character by what appears to them on the surface,

but then again, what else do you expect from a superficial america that invests no interest in intellectualism or free thinking, or even exploration of thought?
