Best Blond Joke Ever
The blonde stereotype, the stereotypical perception of blond-haired women, has two aspects. On one hand, over history, blonde hair in women has been considered attractive and desirable. On the other hand, a blonde woman is often perceived as making little use of intelligence and as a "woman who relied on her looks rather than on intelligence." The latter stereotype of "dumb blonde" is exploited in blonde jokes. The stereotypical blonde man has often been portrayed as a dehumanized antagonist or a villain in American films and television programs.

Famous quotes containing the words blond and/or joke:
“A blond in a red dress can do without introductions—but not without a bodyguard.”
—Rona Jaffe (b. 1932)
“A man assumes that a woman’s refusal is just part of a game. Or, at any rate, a lot of men assume that. When a man says no, it’s no. When a woman says no, it’s yes, or at least maybe. There is even a joke to that effect. And little by little, women begin to believe in this view of themselves.”
—Erica Jong (b. 1942)
