As a person who has been blond and brunette at the same time...<br /><br />Not offensive. People need to stop getting their panties in a bunch. "Leik, omg!! U makin fun o me!!11!!"<br /><br />I had a girl in my class that got severely offended when I referred to someone's personality as "blond". I was having a conversation with my teacher and coach and she looks at me and says, rather irritated "I'm blond." <br />I turned to her and said "Yes, you're blond. But you're not stupid blond."<br /><br />It can be taken in different contexts. Not everyone who is blond is dumb, not everyone who is dumb isn't blond. It's a stereotypical thing. Not all blonds are like that. <br /><br />You have to have a sense of humor. If you don't...eh. I can see why being social would be a problem for you. In response to June, I'm brunette and still have people refer to me as "blond" when I do something ditsy.

I'm blonde. :D <br />Blonde jokes are quite funny, I like to hear them! XD <br /><br />But then, I'm a bit disappointed that they single blonde's out. Why blonde's? <br /><br />Also if I make a mistake in anything I do, someone go's 'Hah your such a blonde!' It doesn't really bug me, but I just want to know what blonde's did to get all the jokes?

I don't mind them, yeah im blonde, im fine with it. :P I tell them sometimes.

i think people need to get a sence of humer and stop takeing things so personaly

I personally don't find it offensive in the least. But then again, I am not a blonde. I have many friends who are though and they laugh along with the rest of us. And I agree is DOES also depend on the blonde in question. Most people don't really think that blondes are dumb, and to be honest I don't know where the whole thing came from. But people of other hair colors get made fun of as well (i.e red heads). In closing it depends on how it is said. Tone of voice and how you present it is everything.

Not offensive if done in good humour. <br /><br />I suppose they can be hurtful if the intent is to injure someone, but that's true for anything. You can hurt someone by saying "hi" if the intent is bad.

I find them completely unnoffensive, unless they are ill-intntioned. I am not a blonde, but I have two or three friends who are, and they find them funny, unlesss they are being said in a not-funny way. I also think that if a person TRULY thinks that blonds are dumb, they are dumb themselves.

<i>"How would YOU feel if someone made fun of you because of what color your hair is?"</i><br /><br />Not blond as stated previously, but I have been made fun of for my hair color. And several other physical traits, extensively over the years, lol. I learned to not mind it around 1st grade. People can be jerks, and I have bigger things to worry over than the opinion of someone I don't care about regarding how much melanin is in my hair/what color I chose to dye it.

Well, I am a blond and sometimes, they are VERY offensive, ya know? How would YOU feel if someone made fun of you because of what color your hair is? I hate blond jokes. They offend me quite deeply. I mean to be honest, I am the smartest girl in my whole grade and I am a blond. So I am just saying, sometimes they can be a joke worth chuckling about and sometimes...they can bring tears to my eyes.

I think there are other much more important things in this world to get worked up over.<br /><br />If I hear a 'stereotype joke' that's meant to be genuinely offensive, it tends to just strike me as pathetic/someone trying to act edgy and failing.<br /><br /><i>Usually</i> the ones aimed at me are in good humor, though, and they make me laugh. I'm not blond, but I leave myself open for other jokes. ;)
