Why do gentlemen prefer blondes?

A Blonde Butnotsodumb

Hmmm, redheads actually are a little higher on my scale, but i have to admit that when i do something stupid i blame it on being blonde. It's fun, and it generally makes the ladies laugh

Interesting! I think we should do a survey. Anyone else prefer redheads?

If most men were honest they'd admit that they're interested in anything that inhales and exhales on a regular basis.

Not according to this scientific study, Min, which says that gentlemen certainly preferred blondes back in the mists of time.

Perhaps your view is just a personal one?

Perhaps....but the (former) governor of NY paid $4,000 a night for a brunette.

He would have probably paid twice that for a blonde.

What intrigues me is, what is it about the blonde hair that turns men on. We women know why we are attracted to certain males? There is usually a biological imperative at work about finding someone wellbuilt because this implies that they will be strong and healthy and thus reliable enough to protect us from all the wild animals of the forest.

So what is it, from a biological point of view, that makes the male think his seed would be better propagated inside a blonde female as opposed to any other? That's my question ...

I think you are giving us Waaaayyyy too much credit for thinking things out that far.

Well, it's not about thinking. It's about lust being driven by the instinct for survival.

Maybe there is something to that dumb blonde thing, and that's why men prefer blondes as wives. Maybe they don't want some smart ass, wise to the ways of the world brunette seeing straight through them when they roll in at 3.00 am stinking of booze and perfume and say they've been working late?

Whaddya think?

It's about lust being driven by the instinct for survival.

Exactly, with the key word being lust not survival. That's just a fortunate by-product of horny guys.

But women are programmed to lust after those who will help them, and their seed, to survive. So what appears to be wild and random lust is actually nature having its way with us. Nature doesn't care about anything other than her own survival, and she's got us all dancing to her tune. It may feel like a random burst of free, wild and inexplicable passion, but there's a rationale behind it that's dictated by the coding within DNA.

So surely men are programmed similarly, even if you're not aware of it?

Remember the box of "nothing?"

Yes!

I'm thinking of getting one!

I also prefer redheads, but my standards in my dating were pretty simple.

"I don't date inside my own gender, or outside my own species."
