Why is blonde hair and blue eyes considered "all-American"?

Not that I'm being insecure or anything- I don't have a problem with blonde beauty being admired as long as she's actually pretty, like Marilyn Monroe, but why is it considered "all-American"? I mean, a pretty dark woman whose people have been in this country for centuries is considered less all-American than Pamela Anderson, who's Canadian! Yet she's dubbed "America's Sweetheart"? Give me a break! And I think there's more bleached blondes than natural blondes. So wouldn't that make blonde, if anything, exotic?

fair-haired women were considered symbolical beauties in Shakespeare's time ...yet his model was a very dark -haired lady,so mysterious and passionate!As for blondies being "all American"I think this is only a stereotype for show bizz...just think a little, aren't the Scandinavian girls fair-haired and blue-eyed?yes ...almost all of them are!It's usually because of the climate there cold and snow so the complexion of the people living there is lighter the same their eyes and hair!I'm a natural blondie and I really don't like those who try to imitate this colour by dying thir hair!It looks so false....well....

I don't know why, but I agree with you. It's pretty stupid.



Why is blonde hair and blue eyes considered "all-American"?

I didn't realize that was considered 'all-American'...I do recall that was Hitler's idea of the perfect race. I also did not know that Pamela Anderson is called 'America's Sweetheart." Where are you getting your information from?



Why is blonde hair and blue eyes considered "all-American"?

That's so stupid. There's no such thing as all american or less american or ANY AMERICAN.



It doesn't matter what color your features are, you wont be more or less American because of it.



It's just one of those stupid things that just doesn't make sense.



It slipped out of someone's mouth and everyone started to repeat it.



Why is blonde hair and blue eyes considered "all-American"?

I dont consider a person all american because of their hair and skin color - that is just Hilter's ignorance that the world cant shake.



Why is blonde hair and blue eyes considered "all-American"?

that was in 1960's



in 2006 and beyond, the all-american is a brown skinned spanish speaking mixture of black and white and latino

I think of the blonde haired blue eyed to be more about American boys rather than girls.



You're right it is stupid. I think someone just made it up years ago and started telling people but no one really thinks that apart from people who are blue eyed and blonde haired. lol have you noticed that?



I think the whole thing with American women is more about the fakeness and hollywood image. So certainly big boobs and bottle blonde hair, but remember the key here is it's unnatural blonde.



I didn't know she was Canadian! ooh.



I think of Swedish people more for blone haired blue eyed women, or maybe even Austrailian, before American. But maybe that's just me. (british btw)



I think it's really all to do with Hollywood. Remember it's only relatively recently that people of different skin colours and such were seen as beauties in the mainstream and given the chance to represent American women.

"All-American" is just a slogan that people use to try to sell you something. There isn't one particular "look" that could define what "Americans" are supposed to look like. I mean, this is the same country that calls true Native Americans "Indians" despite knowing that this is not India. America is a reflection of the rest of the world and it's always been that way. Our country was built by people of every color. Despite what the media tries to sell us, people tend to judge what beauty is on their own.
