I thought and thought for a long time but I just cannot comprehend how a woman's wardrobe can inversely affect her intelligence in any way? And oh, from a fellow blogger who's wardrobe is just as unlimited, it's contestant, not contestent.

I am a person of mixed race and I am not really affected by the whole "blonde vs. brunette" conflict. First of all, no offense, but I think that you're all a bunch of white people who don't know how good you all have it, regardless of your hair colour. What does slightly bother me is when stars like beyonce and J-Lo get successful only after lightening (or straightening) their hair, demonstrating that the "whiter" they look, the more accepted they will be. In the case of J-Lo, you can be Latina and it's ok, as long as you have white features. Instead of bleaching, straightening and lightening themselves, why don't they just be proud of their ethnic appearance and not try to change their looks.
