How do you get a blonde to express emotion at a joke on Saturday? A. Tell it to her on Tuesday. argon those jokes about blondes or intelligence of a certain ethnical assembly re altogethery considered as funny? Are they semipolitically correct? unmatchable could tell a joke about intelligence of almost both ethnical group or attribute of someone, does this mean that these jokes argon political correct now, beca enjoyment everyone is affected by it? A random person tells a joke about my intelligence assuming that I am dullard just because I am blonde. I dont lot about the blonde jokes, evidently because the ones who tell the joke keep back a go at it scarce that it is not true. If people start to confide and take it personally, it could cause a lot of problems. I am aw be that I am not stupid, why would I be successful in my work then?Last week I walk into the office, everything as usual my coffe and work awaiting on my desk, the employees getting ready to work. I get introduced to a in the buff employee. A young tall man, seems confident, blue eyes, brown hair and spiffed up in a suite. Lets recite Good looking. We talk, we laugh, I spill my coffee. He laughs and immediately has a blonde joke ready. Does he never spill his coffee? I could assume hes a dumbass, just because he has the stereotyp of a good looking supreme man. Certainly he didnt mean to offend me, because we both know that blonde jokes are not true. Where is the context between blonde and obtuseness?The answer I believe is green-eyed monster. Blondes are also seen as men-attracter, no matter if it is true or not. Men prefer blonde women, indeed other hair color ed women are in the shadow of the blondes. Smells of jealousy The men are not getting blamed for prefffering the blondes, but the blondes as stupid as they are running after men. jealousy? Seriously? Are human beings getting so upset that they consume to discrimnate someones intelligence totally because of their hair color? Hair color incomplete has feelings nor can it talk, so what is it about the hair color? It is not only the blondes who are hearing the jokes over and over again.The first impression of an Asian people have is that they are smart. Without even talking to them their prejusdice is that this Asian person is smarter than everyone else. What would you say about the intelligence of an American? Yes, I can forsee you would say that they have no general knowledge. A joke about Americans How does an American search for a rabbit ? He imitates the sound of a carrot. The joke itself is funny and everyone knows that it is not true, since it is unrealistic. The thought behi nd the joke though is noneffervescent considered as true, that Americans are stupid.Here is the point where it could cause troubles, if people actually believe in it. One cannot judge the Americans as stupid, since their culture might have teached them differently. Eduaction is different, but judge the one who is responsible for it and not the ones who are dependet of it. If they are not intelligent, why are we then buying their products? I use my Iphone everyday, I am writing on my MacBook and I love Starbucks. They all are American products. It needs intelligence to succeed, no matter what kind feelinged of product. It could be food, clothing or technic.Im comparing Asians, europiumans and Americans now with their culture. mess also say that the geographical knowledge of Americans are the worst, but does everyone in the realness besides the Americans know where Estonia is? Would you know off by heart without looking at a map? I believe one-half of us wouldnt know. In the Amer ican culture, people express ones sentiments no matter if it is right or wrong and in case it is wrong they volition laugh with it and correct is whereas in Europe it is embarassing. In Switzerland, where I live, it is an embarassement if you said something very wrong and people will laugh at you and not with you.In the Asian culture, for example in the Chinese culture there is the one-child policy. Obviously the parents want his only child to be successful and need to push them, therefore their effort overall in the culture is much higher than the ones of Americans. This still does not mean that Asians are smarter, only that some put in more effort and I would consider this as positive rather than negative. Maybe some are just again jealous that they dont have the resolution to put in enough effort to achieve a goal. only these jokes about intelligence are superficial and therefore spread slowly within a community or even outside the community.There is no logic behind these jok es, since one is proud of ones individuality and the whole world discloses individuality, but these jokes show the opposite. I clearly cannot see any coefficient of correlation between these to human thoughts. I will just live with the blonde jokes and be amused of them rather than being offended, they are still funny. apprehension cannot be measured through appearance or nationality. Its obnoxious, cheating(prenominal) and stereotypical to blame intelligence on appearance or on an entire nationality. The lack of intelligence or overdose of intelligence simply doesnt come from these factors.
