Gentlemen Do Prefer Blondes

A survey has revealed men really do prefer blondes - at least as lovers and mistresses - while women least fancy ginger men.
Until they were asked to 'pick' a wife, more of the men polled by Garnier opted for a woman with blonde hair.
Second favourites for having an affair with were redheads.
Men's preferences change, however, with talk of marriage, with brunette emerging as the favourite hair colour for a bride.
The poll also questioned women on what colour hair they most liked in a man, finding dark-haired men are the most popular and gingers the least. Just 2% of women said they liked ginger hair best.
Instead, 37% of women said they preferred brunette men, followed by light brown, 29%, then blonde, 16%. Black hair was not included in the list.
The "blonde bombshell" myth seemed to be confirmed among the men who were questioned. Around 26% of men thought blonde women made the best lovers, 22% thought ginger, 20% light brown hair, and 10% brunette. Black hair was not given as a choice in any of the questions.
For mistresses, 37% of men said their ideal would be blonde, followed by 22% redhead, 13% brunette, and 6% light brown hair. But asked who they would like to walk down the aisle, 30% of men said brunette, 27% light-brown, 15% blonde, and 7% ginger.
Blondes were seen as less likely to have a successful career or earn a fortune. Almost a third of men - 31% - thought brunettes would also earn most, with 26% saying blondes, 11% brown haired women, and 9% redheads.
A psychologist at Portsmouth University, said: "What's interesting about this study is that men are now showing an overall preference for brunettes, suggesting that this colour provides a safe haven for men looking for longer-term relationships or making the ultimate life commitment - marriage."
=====================
They must have surveyed mostly Armenian men.

Aaaaah, but it's fun. Besides, in this case the survey is very prevalent to the Armenian male population. Yes, I am generalizing and I don't care. Long live Stereotypes. By the way I really wonder if most women prefer dark men. Personally I prefer triangles instead, the hair goes after some time. I would like the women of this forum to state what hair color they prefer.

I prefer dark hair. Of course, overall, if the guy is attractive then hair color is not that important, but generally darker hair for me means more masculine. And if he has strong, long arms and big hands then

Don’t worry I didn’t have you in mind when I typed “Gentlemen.”

Big strong arms is a biggie for me, especially if they are positioned on broad shoulders. Lately I have been very happy with the swimmer’s figure, as I’ve mentioned- triangular. But I guess it is generally true that women consider dark men more masculine.

I think a girl with dark hair/light eyes is the ultimate combo, just something about it
