Some people perceive blondes as dimwitted women. The myth of the stupidity of fair-haired women owes its origin to many factors.
Sexy beauty
Blonde actresses created images of dimwitted sexy beauties, and fans of cinema took the style and behavior of the heroines on a pencil. As a result, a stereotype of a blond, tender, but silly girl who does not want to seriously think about life and solve any difficult problems was formed. All her thoughts are light and weightless.
In some films or books, there is a contrast between the narrow-minded blonde and the intellectual brunette. To create an effective contrast, the stupidity of the owners of blonde hair is greatly exaggerated.
Maybe the movie image has penetrated the masses.
Fashion victim
Separately, it is worth noting not natural, but dyed blondes. Sometimes girls who absorb any fashion trend easily abandon their natural appearance and lighten their hair for the sake of fashion and the stronger sex.
At the same time, these ladies dress brightly and make up, behave flirtatiously, in general, try to attract attention in every way with the help of their own appearance. Perhaps, because of such representatives of the fair sex, blond is considered not too smart.
Sometimes bright, dyed blondes behave defiantly and demonstrate not personal qualities, but their own charms.
Defensive reaction
Sometimes men get lost in front of beautiful women. Sometimes they get rejected by gorgeous girls and, in revenge, invent myths about their stupidity. Perhaps blondes fell into the rank of narrow-minded representatives of the fair sex precisely because young people wanted to somehow protect themselves from their crushing seductiveness.
Maybe the myths about blondes were invented by men who wanted to somehow assert themselves against the background of stupid women. Anecodots and catch phrases about which blond girls are stupid and not adapted to life can warm the soul of guys with complexes.
It is possible that women, whose only weapon is intellect, had a hand in the development of the opinion of blondes as dull-witted girls. Out of annoyance at someone else's beauty, brightness, attractiveness and sexuality, "gray mice" have come up with such a way to take revenge and belittle blondes.
