This is totally going to dispel the stereotype that blondes are dumb! At least until the rest of us dummies forget about it in, like, three days.
A new study out of Ohio State University found that blondes aren’t dumber than people with other hair colors . . . in fact, they might be slightly smarter.
The study had women with blonde, black, brown, and red hair take IQ tests. And it only tested white women, to take out any possible ethnic or racial factors.
Blonde women had an average IQ of 103.2 . . . brown haired women averaged 102.7 . . . red haired women averaged 101.2 . . . and black haired women averaged 100.5.
The researchers say those scores are too close to be statistically significant but, quote, “[While] we don’t think you can say with certainty that blondes are smarter than others, you can definitely say they aren’t any dumber.”
The study DID find that about 3.5% of women LIED about having naturally blonde hair, which is more than any other color.
