Is Peroxide an Endangered Species



It’s summer here and everywhere you look there are lots of pretty girls. The thing is 19 out of 20 of them are blonde. The ratio is kind of interesting because from what I know of genetics only 5% of the population is blonde so the numbers should be the other way around. Only one of the 20 should be a natural blonde. Perhaps we should blame Marilyn Monroe and movies like Gentlemen prefer blondes. Or advertising with slogans such as blondes have more fun. The fact that natural blondes are far outnumbered by peroxide blondes gives rise a number of the blonde jokes. Examples are how can you tell you have a blonde landscaper. The Bushes are darker then the rest of the plants. Also what do you get when you stand 10 Blondes on their heads. 9 Brunettes and a Redhead.

Or perhaps is the stereotypes of the dim witted blondes. Perhaps young girls think blondes aren’t expected to think so if I dye my hair blonde it won’t be expected of me. (Girls it is still your marks that will determine where you can go to college or even if you can. Your hair colour doesn’t even enter into it) Of course this leads to it’s own set of jokes such as. A cannibal goes into the cannibal butcher and asks for a pound of brains. The butcher says Brunette brains are $6 a pound Redhead brains are $8 a pound and Blonde brains are $18,000 an once. He asks why are Blonde brains so expensive and is told. Do you have any idea how many Blondes it takes to get an once of brains.

No matter the reason we are surrounded by non blonde blondes. So I wonder we are running out of fossil fuels. There are concerns about the worlds fresh water supply. With all these blondes should we also be asking ourselves. Is peroxide becoming an endangered species?

  1. Very funny! I too was a 'blond' from the age of 14 to 18, but I got fed up with the dark roots!

    2 blonds lock the keys in their car. One of them says 'darn, I can't pick this lock' The other one says 'keep trying, it's gonna rain & the roof is down'........

  2. ROFL, Brilliant post sid.
    I am a natural redhead, and have spent the last 12 years dying it chocolate brown. Go figure. Maybe because the women around me whom I see as the most attractive seem to have dark hair and skin.
    I cant solve the dark skin problem, without turning a burnt orange shade so I make do with the hair lol.

    i dont believe blondes are that stupid, maybe those who envy them made up all those stories because blondes do get lots of attention.
    but i think black is beautiful!!!
