CONTROVERSY


The Sunday Times on the web - and it was picked up by Der Spiegel - reported on a recent bit of social research to the effect that being around blond women made men behave dumber. Blonds are dumber because they tend to live-up to the stereotype that they are dumb and men behave dumb in their presence because they assume it is true. Even the University of St-Andrews is in on it with the notion that there was natural selection toward blond women at the end of the last Ice Age because blondness made women stand out and attract males more easily...

Gimme a break! I've been a brunette all my life and men talk down to me.
