You have to understand people have opinions, people label other people, and have stereotypes. And you can't worry about that. Just keep proving them wrong. But yes, I know how you feel, though. Nobody needs to know anything about you, it's your business.

lol.....Nothing to do. Just keep getting those A's and B's.They'll be kissing your ass when you're going to Harvard and they're making you're order at McDonalds.In life,and as you get older, you start to realize that the little people(such as the ones generalizing that all blondes are dumb) DON'T MATTER!!!!!!!!Don't let them make you feel bad about yourself, because from what I see, they're just mad because they know you're amazing.....Hope I helped,<3Potential.

Laugh at them... make sure you point your finger at them while laughing so they know your laughing at them, this way they feel stupid and its fun.

You have to just deal with it. Once everyone grows up it'll stop, all the stereotyping will stop.

Prove them wrong, act, talk, or dress more mature. Get glasses, for some reason they make you look instantly smart.

Just let them talk! Ignore them, that's the best to do, because then they'll get bored of doing it and eventually stop. You can also show them your report card :). That should do the trick!

Good Luck!,

I always hated being blonde. Blonde jokes really started becoming quite popular when I was in high school. (GRRRR!) I highly doubt there is a blonde joke I haven't heard already.

The best thing you can do is to ignore it. You can change your hair color, but you only be a blonde in disguise.

Go ahead- let them think you are stupid. They are entitled to their opinions, as are you. You know you aren't stupid, as well as those who care about you. That's all that really matters.

The way I look at it is this- if some one has the audacity to judge my knowledge based on the color of my hair, then they aren't to bright themselves. They aren't worth wasting my breath and time on. That's their own too bad.

And you are going to have those in your life that give you a hard time about it just to kid around with you. Those people don't think you are stupid, they are just giving you crap. My husband gives me a rash about it now and then out of jest.

A saying I learned from my high school math teacher: "Don't let the bastards get you down."
