Not the case for me. I have had people (generally all women) make assumptions about me based on my hair color, though. One woman told me she didn't like me when she met me because of my hair. Oh well, can't please everyone!

That is a very rare combination. But I did have a husky that looked that way. He was complimented for his beauty and size.



No it is not uncommon. At least not in the south. Brown/blue eyed here and more attention then I ever wanted in life. Could be my personality though. 😁

You know that most blondes are bottle blondes right? You can be too. Then you would also be a white blonde woman.

White brunette—>white blonde will cost you $4 with a bottle of Nice and Easy. Your problem solved. Just saved you a lot of money in therapy bills!

More than the looks, I think it's what I do,how I carry myself or behave that give is away that I'm not originally from here. Like one guy said in 1997, "Are you from Sweden of something, because white people don't walk here".
If some of us do look washed out later in life, you know why; we can't take as much sun as the people with darker skin. But also, I'm a blonde who had "bad genes" and they are clearly coming out in my 40s. I'm surprised I ever looked good, and I did: blond hair and green eyes were bonus. I had fun when I was younger and absolutely recognized that I got a lot of attention for being blonde
( this attention disappears once I get off the plane in Northern Europe). At my age, 43, I just want to be healthy, do well financially, enjoy my children, and take it easy. When I was young I cared for looks and I had them, now I don't my looks, and I don't care.
I have been brunette but it didn't last long. Maybe I looked like a fake brunette or it didn't fit me, but people walked by me as if I didn't even exist.
Op, enjoy your good looks as I did when I was younger. It's good to feel pretty. I don't even put effort into looking prettier. I just don't care right now; priorities change. I take my shower, put cream on my face and I'm good to go.

What the hell is that look that doesn't look U.S. born white? Are you on drugs? Do you realize that a large part of the U.S. population is Northern European? How you carry yourself? Ridiculous! Perhaps you have a strong accent? You sound ridiculous! You realize that much of the white population of Colorado, Minnesota, etc.. looks exactly like that? You live where? In the DMV? And you decide to show your ignorance about the U.S. by claiming that you carry yourself, by that you mean being a shallow dimwit? Yes, that just be it!

Say what you want about the Kardashians and their Armenian look, but I do think they helped to change the narrative on what beauty looks like in America.

White was always beautiful. And, to me, I would always see beautiful black women on TV and in magazines. But I never saw my shade of brown.


The Kardashian girls look nothing like their former selves. The amount of cosmetic procedures is staggering and the vapidness, incredibly vainness an materialism is awful for young girls.

I’ve seriously never thought about it. A brunette that never felt overlooked. Lol

Most blondes aren’t true blondes. The collars and cuffs don’t match.

I do think that people make assumptions about blonde women. I'm blonde (natural) and I think people often assume I have no problems. I also occasionally hear the "ditzy blonde" remark even though I'm kind of serious and intense and do very well in a profession known for its intellectual challenges. I have learned to play the stereotypes to my advantage.

I am a true blonde with blue eyes of Swedish/German descent. And to answer OP’s question, yes. I do feel stereotyped at times but more often I feel incredibly lucky that I was born with these features. I’ve also always fallen more in the category of cute than glamazon b/c I am short and have freckles.
Interestingly, my college was full of athletic beautiful blondes but the brunettes got the most male attention, I think b/c they seemed more exotic.

I now have red mottled skin from sun damage on my neck and chest, just like my mother did, despite sunscreen. I don't and never have thought blond women were the epitome of beauty. I think Selena Gomez is more attractive than Taylor Swift, for example.

I got tons of attention as a child, in my teens, 20s, 30s and even early 40s. Now I'm almost 50 and I just think I look washed out and old. I never really understood the attention or wanted it (many reasons for this). Growing up in DC proper in a military family my circle of friends come from different ethnicities, but probably the most are African-American, Persian, Korean and Vietnamese (school friends and also kids of my Dad's co-workers). I have always been attracted to women with dark features, non blotchy skin (whether women of color or just white women who have olive skin). It just has always looked more beautiful to me. I tried to tan when I was younger and i'd just burn. Now I have brown spots and wrinkles. My friends look so much better than I do.
