This phenomenon has many very plain looking, and even ugly men and women thinking they are attractive. Most are just average. I don't get the excitement about blond hair and blue eyes.
I don't think the phenomena is as strong as it once was, but I am 1/2 Scandinavian and 1/2 Irish. Black Irish.
My mother has coal black eyes, dark brown hair and olive skin. Her family came from Northern Ireland.
She was only 5'1" at her tallest.
She is OBSESSED with blond blue eyed people. And I have seen this phenomena in action. She would attribute beauty to the most bland, washed out blond, with clunky, unrefined features, who is plain and gawky.
She hated my wife because she is 5'5 with reddish brown hair and green eyes. I like very refined chiseled features on women.
She was always pointing out gawky blonds at church with broad noses, small eyes and thing lips.
I happen to think that people in the middle are most attractive, but that good looking people come in all shapes and sizes, but some very fair women on my father's size can have awkward features and postures.
To you they are. It seems that at least in the US, dark Mediterranean types are pushing the fair Northern European look aside. Think of the Kardashians popularity. Not my type, but my wife's niece dyed her blond hair BLACK recently. Not at all unusual in her age group. 20s.
In the interest of full disclosure, my wife is fair, with green eyes and blonde hair. She is of northern European heritage.
But, pretty women come is all shades. You seem, at least by your posts, and screen name to be fixated on Anglo Saxons.
Our daughter is Asian, and she is very, very pretty.
Don't be confused! I only explained how the blonde hair and blue-eyed concept of beauty came about. I did not show any preference.
It is not the standard but it is the most desirable.
But Hitler wanted to make blond hair and blue eyes, one of the standards
of his superior race that he was trying to develope.

Funny how Hitler wanted a blond/blue eyed race for superiority, yet he had brown hair
and eyes...he didn't measure up to the standards of superiority himself.

Sorry, I stand corrected..he was half superior....
1/3 because he wasn't tall.
