i am a dark haired greek girl with olive skin..one thing i noticed even being born in a multiculturl city like london..is that the whiter you are the more attention you got..unless you were exceptionally stunning..and when it came to the dating season..i noticed most of the arabs and asians and european men always went for the english girls..i had to win a date on account of my intellect or talent..but the whiter girls just got their dates and lavished with attention just for being white..have any of you felt the same as me..or do you think this is true?
i even noticed in the indian scene..now that's where i had it good lol..cos by indian terms i am quite gori..so i got attention cos i was more white than a lot of the indian girls..i think this kind of innate judgement is horrible though..

If you are talking hair color - blonde does stand out more and it attracts the eye. If you are talking skin though, it is possible to be "too white". My hair is brown and my skin has always been very white and translucent (you can see the veins under the surface). But many people thought this was bad because I was not "tanned" - in the sun all I do is burn and peel and then I am really pale again. One guy said I looked "like a ghost". In high school, I watched guys going out with "California girls", you know the type tall, blonde and tanned. But after high school I found that I had no problem getting dates and getting married while some of the tanned blondes were lucky if they could get a guy interested in more than a date or one-night-stand (fun to date but not the type you take home and marry!). I'd rather be the type they want to keep and marry, not the date them, use them and dump them type.

I know here in America, the old saying is" blondes have more fun, but I think that is just a stereo typical thing. I don't think it matters what your race, gender or color of your hair is. Some people just have more fun than others.

white gurls usually do get all the attention, it drives me nuts (even tho i'm a white gurl) but i'm nto a blond, i have black and pink hair lol i dunno wat it is about blonds that everyone loves, but if sumone can't accept me for me, i'm not about to change who i am for their approval so i dont pay much attention to stereotypical ppl.

Blondes get more attention cause blokes think they are 'easier'. Take it from someone who has just dyed their long hair from blonde to black - Literally men think you're easy if you're blonde! Not one tarty remark since dying my hair black - if that isn't proof I dunno what is (and no I don't wear low cut tops or short skirts either!)
