As if I don't have a right to my own opinion about genetics. I am also kind of sensitive to blonde jokes. This whole thing is just because it happens to be a hair color preference in a mate. I wish they would beef up in numbers, especially in places like the US. I don't want to have to move just to find a mate with a preferred natural hair color. That's just not practical.

I don't want them to ever go away anymore than they already have. I am especially talking about a more lightish blonde in adulthood. Please don't make the dumb blonde jokes, scream "pedophile" or "nazi" because I can't take it anymore. Why don't people just accept what I say is genetic fact at face value?

And if you think another section is better, move this post.
Just realize, if YOU yourself are anything but blonde yourself, you will be contributing to the decline of the supply of natural blondes by mating with one.....where did they go? They all mated with dark-haired men and ruined the blonde bloodline The only way possible for natural blondes to "increase their numbers" is to only mate with other natural blondes.

If you go to a state like Wisconsin where there is a large population of Swedish immigrants, there will be more blondes. Remember pale blondes were primarily only in very cold climates originally (thus they don't need the protection from the sun darker people have) so when they emigrated here, they went to other cold climes primarily. So yes, you are going to have a hard time finding one in Georgia or Arizona, but there are plenty of places in the north the supply should be more than adequate. Unless of course they've already all mated with dark-haired men and ruined the bloodlines.

My 13 and half year old niece is a natural blonde and I expect she will continue to be so into adulthood.

I'm an adult(19) and I have never died my hair, but have light blonde hair. People always ask me if I dye it because I have darker eyebrows but I never have

I have natural blonde hair, but its very a dark blonde. I hate my natural color, so I either keep it a lighter blonder or brown.

Ever been to the upper Midwest? They're not hard to find there. I've known quite a few natural blonds who remained blond in adulthood, and I'm from the West Coast. Maybe they all run away when they see you coming?

My hair was very light blond as a child and as an adult golden blond. Currently I'm bald, its a blessing too. My daughter has my hair and blue eyes and her hair color seems to be more towards honey where as mine was yellow/white. I think it may actually come from her mom who was a redhead. She seldom dyes it or anything like that. She also has sensitive fair skin like her mom and a few freckles.

Us blondes are still around, you just don't see it as much with the other more common types in recent history.

Why do they have to be born blonde, isn't a bottle blonde good enough?

My mom had natural black hair but my dad's side was Danish and German. All of my brothers and sisters got dark hair and brown eyes. My hair was so light I looked like I was bald until I was 3. I also got the blue eyes but sort of a dark blue-not the real light bedroom eyes type. I got a mixture too. My eyebrows are really dark but my hair was light blonde until I was in college and it got to be more of a dirty blonde.

I dyed it to give me that golden blonde look that was popular then, but ended up allergic to dyes so have kept it natural ever since. What was really cool. My hair got natural lighter streaks when I was in my 30s. I did not have to pay for highlights By the time I was 40 my hair was turning to a nice platinum blonde again-possibly from being active in the sun a lot here in Florida. My hair is still pretty much 1 of a kind and I get complements on the color at 68. When asked now I say it is Ice blonde or platinum. It is not white white like a lot of elderly white hair or the gray white or the yellowish white you see on people. And the good thing-either people are being nice or it really has never made me look older because most people assume I am about 10 years younger than I am.

I went blonde a few years ago due to it hiding grays better . Never thought I would be a blonde.
