actually found the link here:

Just checking to see if he sent the same disclaimer to any other sites who quoted the article, and he did. So, it's not like we're special here. We just got a copy pasta from him.

I was wondering about that. Is the fallout that big that they're searching the net for references to their article in an attempt to clarify things?

It would appear so.

Hey, don't blame him if he was misquoted/misrepresented in the article. I'd be pissed too.

I like brunettes and black hair, but its not a strong preference. Men can't really afford to be picky on these kinds of things! That said, in my younger years attempts to pursue blonds generally constituted different levels of failure...while all the women I can think of showing an active interest in me were brunettes. One might say I learned to go with the flow and married a brunette. :p

I was going to say brunette, but ALL of the girls I ever dated for any length of time were all blondes, except my ex-wife. So I guess my preference is a matter of historical record.

There's girls that look good blonde and girls that look good as brunette.

One perfect example is Rachel McAdams. She's hot as a blonde, but AMAZING as a brunette.

Avril Lavigne is an example of a good blonde. She looks much better than her plain brown days.

I like a hot brunette more than a hot blonde, but I think it's easier for a blonde to be hot.

Basically my take on it. There is a trophy aspect to dating a blond due to scarcity, but I like the contrast between skin and hair of brunettes more. Unfortunately a lot of hot brunettes chose to go blond.

Redheads, then brunettes.

I'm almost always disappointed in the change when an actress goes blonde to try to help her career.

Honestly, it doesn't really matter one bit to me. I find all sorts of women attractive, blondes, brunettes, redheads, petite women, tall women, black, white, asian, it doesn't matter...as long as they aren't fat or ugly.

Don't care about hair color, to be honest.

Hair length, on the other hand, is important. I really don't like short hair.
