What, you've never heard a dumb blonde joke before?

from wiki blonde hair color:

Natural lighter hair colors occur most often in Europe and less frequently in other areas.[22] In northern European populations, the occurrence of blond hair is very frequent. The hair color gene MC1R has at least seven variants in Europe giving the continent a wide range of hair and eye shades. Based on recent genetic research carried out at three Japanese universities, the date of the genetic mutation that resulted in blond hair in Europe has been isolated to about 11,000 years ago during the last ice age.[23]

i believe neanderthals were gone by 11,000 years ago.


if you actually have an article... would be interesting to read.
