Why do boys always go for the pretty girls? They have to have the blonde hair and blue eyes! But what about the girls with dark hair and green eyes? Aren't they pretty too? Boys always go for the pretty girls, they want to look popular with those girls and be considered cool cause they go out with the "cute" girls! What's so cute about a ton of blonde cheerleaders thinking they're better then everyone else? In all the movies the blonde cheerleader has the guy at the beginning but then, in the end, the brunette get's him. Why can't it be like that in reality? Boys are so confusing. One moment they are together with the geeky girl, the next moment they are dancing at prom with a cheerleader. Why can't the girls that make sense and are beautiful in there own way be loved. Why are boys so cute, yet so hard.

Look, I am tired of trying to explain myself-which is really hard considering I am unable to put any real voice in my typed words. Please leave me at peace. People are different, so yes not of the people who do drugs are the "cool" people, but neither are they all the missunderstood. And relating to the actual article, not all people are easy to read so I really can't help the writer.

(By the way, I am really a nice and self-less in person, but TheMesserSandman didn't have to go crazy.)

i am a male and i like to think that i am not one of the guys that break girls hearts, i dont think i am that ignorant, i am an emotional guy so i like the emotional NON-Stuck up girls that can apreciate the more lower class plesuars like a hand writen love song

The whole "blonde and blue-eyed" thing really stereotypes the whole thing, but all I can say for us guys is that not every guy is like that. Oh...and while this definitely applies to girls too, I have to say it's all about the choice of an individual, nothing more.

i am a blonde girl with hazel eyes that change six diffenet colors, (which is irelevant i just love that fact about me and needed to share it before i made my point.) point is im not a cheerleader although i tired to be but the couc h said my back was too flexible, whatever that means, but i cant find a guy. havent had a boyfriend in about two years. I'm not popular but not a geek just person walking through the halls.... so see im one example of a blonde that doesnt get the guy....and i've had people tell me im beautiful before so, ya.

Why are girls so confusing?

Sometimes they are there for you, when uncontrollable, unexpressed emotions are tearing you apart from the inside, you can take it any more and you give in to an explosion of swearing an tears. She is there with a concerned look, she stands next to you after class to make sure you are ok.

Later after you have mustered all of your courage in yourself, you confess your feelings for her. You are standing there with the fluttering in your heart; hope overflowing in your eyes. It's like she never heard you, she's not even looking at you. You are pretty damn sure you aren't invisible.

You see here every day, you sit next to her in three class. She never hears you, she never sees you. It's like you're not even there.

I'm enjoying the fact that people can relate to what I posted (:

But yes, beauty is not based on a stereotype.

in movies they have cheerleaders all stuck up so I think that's why people think that's the way it should be. but I'm a cheerleader and i have cheerleader friends and we aren't stuck up.

I'm a cheerleader and i have brown hair and brown eyes. Girls always say that I have all the boys running after me but I only have eyes for one person. And having a lot of boys falling for you isn't that great anyways. It's nice to hear that you beautiful or you look nice today but... idk.

Not all guys are like that. Just like girls, there are a bunch of guys out there with great personalities. There's a huge variation to choose from! It seems like you're just looking at the ones who are snobby. Open your eyes, there's good guys everywhere, and some of them are cute too. This article's kind of degrading.

It is totally crazy how much the blond hair blue eyes sterotype has corrupted our minds!

I mean there are girls who don't look this way and therefor fell under apreciated because of it.

And there are also guys who do go for the blond haired blue eyed girls (not all just some!!!) because that what our culturwe defines as beauty.

This is totally out odf control!!!
