[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and can be very culturally dependent. I have a coworker who makes a lot out of her daughter’s platinum blonde hair. I feel sorry for the kid if it darkens because that is all her mother ever brags about. [/quote]

well to be fair probably most moms are going to be sad when their kids blonde hair starts to darken so she wouldn't be in the minority.[/quote]

??? My kids are blond and I have brown hair and my DH has very dark brown hair. We were both blond as kids. I will not care one whit when my kids' hair darkens. I hope it gets as dark as my DH's hair.[/quote]

OK great that you think that way, but [b]you know you are in the minority[/b]. 
Why do you think most adult women we see out on the streets with blonde hair are bottle blondes?[/quote]

DP: I don't know that I know that--if I go with my gut, I think blonde hair on adults looks kind of childish and not quite as attractive as darker.  I know this is just subjective, but that's my taste and I don't know that it's a minority view.   The expression tall, dark and handsome?  Women with dark hair always strike me as more beautiful and interesting whereas blond has more of a cute (or fake) look.  I think there might have been a generation that liked blondes most, but I don't think that's a current preference.
