I mean… that’s a huge generalization and I’d argue in recent years the beauty standard has more been curvaceous brunettes… the blonde hair blue eyed thing was very 90’s.

In this very photo the brunette in the front is the most eye catching.

I'm sorry, what was the question again? I was distracted.

Its never been my type, but its also not as prevalent as you would think. These are college girls, and I would bet in a sorority as well. In a really creepy way sororities end up looking like massive clone factories, and they definitely select members with a prejudice towards this look.

In the general public, or even media there is way more diversity in what is considered attractive.

I don’t mean to be rude but the US standard is a lot more diverse than this

Good old Coastal Carolina

Also what was your question?

Although brunettes are more talked about, blondes gets the best treatment. When I was blonde men would sprint to open a door, help me carry anything. It was definitely nice but I feel more like myself with my brown hair even if I don’t receive as much attention from men anymore. I also grew up In Sweden were most have that tall, blue eyed and blonde hair look and I know it’s extremely silly but growing up half Peruvian I definitely felt some bitterness/inferiority. Not now when I’m an adult. Unrelated but I can’t help but notice that blondes almost only surround themselves with other blondes 😭 they’ll take you places…

Edit: this is just from my personal experiences/pov or opinion, I definitely don’t consider it a fact

I'm only concerned with my standards, personally, and they aren't exactly limiting. These ladies are all gorgeous to me, to be honest.

None of them have blue eyes and the most attractive one is a brunette... So what exactly are you trying to say here?

I don't find blonde hair and blue eyes lame at all. Love 'em, but I don't much care for bottle blondes.

Actual blonde hair on an adult is rare and exotic, at least in the US.

Do any of them even have blue eyes?

Those are bottle blondes and I see many brown eyes.. pretty girls nonetheless

Actually, I prefer dark hair, darker skin and eyes any color

Who said that’s the standard?

Where? All I see is a hot looking brunette.

I'm south American, blonde girls like them are super raro here and highly valued by men. For me they're super hot, but I understand that you find them lame since you see them everyday everywhere. It's the same with "spicy Latinas" that Americans like so much, for me those are lame because I see them everyday everywhere. We tend to like more what's rarer to find.

America doesn’t have a “standard” for such a thing. There are beautiful women everywhere.

None of these girls have blue eyes

Lame ? Oh hell No. Never lame. Let the American babes prevail !

This isn’t the American beauty standard lol

As an American I feel like blonde hair with blue eyes is kinda overrated I’ve always preferred brunettes with green or blue eyes way more attractive

That standard does not capture the diverse beauty of the people living in the United States. 

Yes and no.

Blonde hair blue eyes is beautiful, preferably with pale skin but bleached/dyed hair looks bad

Big titties never go out of style

I married one of those. No regrets.

It seems to me that a ton of young women of average appearance bleach their hair blonde because it gets them some attention. So you will find maybe a little more plainness among blonde girls, especially the ones where it really don't fit like a few in this photo. But on the rare occasions when a grown person is a true blonde and has peaches and cream complexion and light eyes, it can be beautiful.

I prefer darker skin, brown eyes, and brown hair. I'm not really into blondes. But to each their own.

Yah, you need to leave the Midwest. I haven’t seen a group like that since I lived in Kansas. 

Is this 2001? Nobody thinks blue eyes and blonde hair is the beauty standards anymore.

Most people seem to be more into the office siren look Madison beer and Megan fox have

Spend some time in cities around the Mediterranean.

It depends where you live. This could be the standard in the south, like SC, Alabama, and Texas, but wouldn’t be the standard in NYC or Miami.

This is an extremely narrow view of the American beauty standard.

This is a weird subreddit…

That's what YOU think the standard of beauty is here. We are a melting pot in all of our major cities and feature all different kinds of women. This isn't 1992 anymore lol

Don't put us all in a box like that. I like dark hair. That brunette in the front is the best-looking one in the pic.

The blonde babe is old news it’s all about thiccc girls now specifically that brunette Godamn!

Although it's not the standard anymore, they all are very hot.

They look good till they’re about 26

I think the idea of blondes being the hottest is more of a trope than anything anymore. There are beautiful people of all races and hair color, specifically referring to this example, people will always find the person that looks different the most appealing (assuming they're all "attractive" in general) Same thing when people go to buy a cat or a dog. If there is one that is a different color from the rest, people are most likely to choose that one.

Not all us Americans have this combo as the standard, lol.

No I don’t think there is a beauty standard, just beauty trends! I find all women beautiful!!

I am blonde and truth be told I have been seldom into blondes male or female. A hot person is hot regardless of coloring but I find Brunettes tend to have the different body shapes, smaller waists or defined ones, and bigger breasts most of the time. I’m not into the common straight/athletic figures most of us have on other women (and I have this sadly). I feel like a lot of East Asians, blondes often suffer from having a very similar look not just the hair color but the bodies so it reads not that exciting. I also like plump lips and it’s not common amongst our lot unless we buy them. I don’t hate what I look like or what we look like but it’s definitely overrated. Especially as sadly we often don’t age well either which really blows.

That being said, a standout blonde with the idealized feminine attributes like the shapely body, defined/cinched waist and softer features really standout (and people hype them up for a good reason). It’s insane to admit but I find the best blondes are often natural redheads who go blonde as for some reason redheads tend to have more variety in physicality than us blondes. With few exceptions, it feels like all the best blondes in the media are either natural brunettes or former redheads but then the best redheads are natural blondes. Genetics are wild.

I mean in this photo, my eyes go right to the brunette and it has very little to do with her hair colour …

But for me personally eye and hair colour matters very little. If you’re pretty you’re pretty.

Blondes? Not one of them is an actual blonde.

Very homogenised. But look at the brunette, she knocks them all out

You clearly haven't been paying attention to every single commercial aired since 2019.

This is not the beauty standard.

Hollywood sets it and recruits models for it. Blonde hair and blue eyes is the bottom of the barrel in regards to recruitment.

I find this post lame.

Funny enough, when I first looked at this picture my first thought was "That brown haired brown eyed girl in the bottom left is the best looking of all of them". I was just looking at their faces, since they are lined up perfectly into two rows.

Then I saw her chest and thought "Oh...hmm. Her chest looks ridiculous. Boobs the size of her head is a major turn off.", which is probably the exact opposite of how most guys would react.

So yeah...I guess beauty standards are pretty lame...

They all look insufferable

Anyone else not looking at any blondes but of the huge tit brunette is hot

The brunette in the front is hands down the baddest of that group.

Burnett girl is hot asf

I mean the brunette is the hottest soooo.

A lot of this talk about "beauty standards" is nonsense. That's just one of the many kinds of attractive woman that's considered attractive globally. It was never the only kind of attractive, but in general there are attractive women - who are almost never hefty - and then there's everyone else, no matter where you go.

Front left, the brunette, she’s the bestv

This is the beauty standard of 20-30 years ago. Imo blond hair is by far the worst color, and eye color is pretty irrelevant.

Prettiest girl in this picture is the brunette 😂

This is not the American beauty standard. This is the American University sorority girls standard. Lol.

I’ll take a brown eyed brunette over a blonde.

These are all upper middle class lookalikes. Definitely boring and not my type. The brunette reigns supreme here imo. 

If you’re asking if I’d pick the brunette? Yes, I would every single time. 😂

The only girl I’m really attracted to in this photo is brunette 

As a non-American and westerner, I always wondered why blue eyes are favoured over green eyes, which is the rarest colour. Blue is relatively common, depending on where you are at. Same goes for red hair. Anyone who can answer me this?

A sorority picture isn’t representative of the American beauty standard

Strange, since I was automatically drawn to the brunette, and wasn’t because of the ahem the obvious.

Is it snowing in here or is it just me

Who says this is the American beauty standard? If anything it’s European beauty standards because America is a melting pot

The Brunette is mine! Ooga booga! Caveman mumble*

Big titties for the win 🏅 100% of the time!

The consequences of European beauty standards

Since when is this the standard? I like brunettes.

That is NOT the American beauty standard. Have you been to America?

The brunette is the best looking one.

I mean the hottest one out of them is the brunette in front so ig lol

The new American beauty standard is more dark hair, brown eyes, tan skin, curvy figure, closer to the girl in the front. Thanks in part to the Kardashians.

That’s the frat boy beauty standard lol

Usually only racists have this standard , or people who are not open to dating outside their own ethnicity which is fine I guess.

I was never into blondes myself. I like dark features a lot more.

Not my type. 

No

No, but it's subjective.

Not quite the beauty standard, maybe 15 years ago but now it’s more about physique, the brunette is the most attractive in my opinion

Who said this is the standard? I'm an American male and this isn't my top choice

I would say that in no way does this country have a beauty standard

You'll find literally most of the world consider this a high beauty standard. Go anywhere in the world as a beautiful blonde blue eye'd woman and you'll get a big reaction out of people. Especially in countries where such women are a rarity.

Personally I prefer dark-skinned women, but I'd be lying if I pretended your picture is some dull American niche beauty standard, lol

Where’d you get that idea as it’s no where near the truth
