Blonde women born to be warrior princesses (My Genes Made Me Spoiled)
Times of London ^ | January 17, 2010 | John Harlow

IT really is a case of blonde ambition. Women with fair hair are more aggressive and determined to get their own way than brunettes or redheads, according to a study by the University of California.

Researchers claim that blondes are more likely to display a “warlike” streak because they attract more attention than other women and are used to getting their own way — the so-called “princess effect”.

Even those who dye their hair blonde quickly take on these attributes, experts found.

The study could cast fresh light on the ability of Joanna Lumley, the actress and former model, to pummel ministers into giving all Gurkha veterans the right to settle in the UK.

It may also help to explain the success of the lead character in Legally Blonde, the hit West End musical based on a film starring Reese Witherspoon, who forces her way to the top of law school despite being perceived as ditzy.

The findings about aggression are contained in research by the University of California, Santa Barbara, to discover whether women who are judged more attractive than others are also more likely to lose their tempers to get what they want.

“We expected blondes to feel more entitled than other young women — this is southern California, the natural habitat of the privileged blonde,” said Aaron Sell, who led the study which has been published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. “What we did not expect to find was how much more warlike they are than their peers on campus.”

I will take whatever you have to offer. It works.

A blonde was driving when she saw the flash of a traffic camera. She figured that her picture had been taken for exceeding the limit, even though she knew that she was not speeding.

Just to be sure, she went around the block and passed the same spot, driving even more slowly, but again the camera flashed. now she began to think that this was quite funny, so she drove even slower as she passed the area again, but the traffic camera again flashed. She tried a fourth time with the same result.

She did this a fifth time and was now laughing when the camera flashed as she rolled past, this time at a snail’s pace...

Two weeks later, she got five tickets in the mail for driving without a seat belt.

OK, this guy and his date, a beautiful blonde (but I repeat myself) standing at the door to his nice house. He also had a nice car with all the options.
He planned to cook for her so they had just returned from the grocery store in his loaded-out Cadillac and he had a bag of groceries under each arm.
So he asked her to reach into his pocket to get his house key. She did and retrieved the keys, and a golf tee.
As they unloaded groceries on the kitchen idland she handed him the tee and said, “What’s this?”
He said, “That’s a golf tee. I use it when I’m out driving on the fairway.”
“How does it work?: she asked.
He paused for a moment then replied, “Well, it holds up my balls when I drive.”

She mulled that over and said, “My goodness, what will those people at Cadillac think of next!”

That’s good enought for a field goal.

“I want redheads, brunettes, and blondes at the same time.”

True diversity?

No, it’s survival instinct. He knows he has to sleep sometime and that’s when you are on the prowl.
