I swear, it's natural!

Late last night, as my boyfriend and I were readying ourselves for bed, we started having a " couple's discussion". Somehow, we started talking about what sort of physical traits we were attracted to in the opposite sex, using celebrities as a guide. It turns out that Matt is more attracted to brunettes - ala Megan Fox, Jessica Beil etc. - but usually dates blondes. I myself am just the opposite. I find I am more attracted to blonde haired, blue eyed guys - ala Cam Giganet (google him, you WILL NOT be disappointed), Paul Walker, etc. -, but usually date brunettes with brown eyes. Well as most of these "relationship discussions" go, it didn't take long for an argument to arise.

When it was my turn to share my physical preferences on the opposite sex to my boyfriend, he was somewhat suprised to find that I was more attracted to blondes. I gave him a few examples (see above) when I got stuck trying to think of another blonde haired, blue eyed guy that I found attractive. At that point he looked over at me, and said "um, how about me. You know... you're blonde haired, blue eyed boyfriend".

I looked over at him, somewhat puzzled and said "Matt, you're not BLONDE!!... you're a brunette!" At that point, Matt recoiled as though I had slapped him and called his mother a whore. A good twenty minute argument ensued where Matt was absolutely defiant that he was blonde, whereas I'm holding my ground that he's a brunette. He threw out a few "It's the gel! The "wet look" makes it appear darker than it is!" and "it's cut short so you can't really tell, but it's definitely blonde Jenn!"

Well long story short, Matt and I clearly cannot reach a consensus on this matter. I'm leaving it up to you to tell me what you think:

Here is my (achingly handsome, if I do say so myself) boyfriend:



As you can see from the date stamp across my face, this is a recent picture.


Here is a REAL blonde:



Please leave a comment as to who is right. Dinner is riding on this!

    You are going to kill me, but I say blonde.

    He's a dirty blonde, but I'd say he's definitely a blonde too...

    Still love you even though you're color blind! :)

  8. He gets my Blond vote. But then again, I think I'm still a blond when many have told me I have "turned" brunette.
