Apparently, women who play dumb are endearing to men, or at least certain kind of men?Stiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12664839305085236990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674020521440547212.post-1192309135211362102009-10-22T19:54:56.539-04:002009-10-22T19:54:56.539-04:00Even though Elle did win the court case in Legally...Even though Elle did win the court case in Legally Blonde and proved that she is smart, let's not forget that the reason she was able to was because of her knowledge of beauty products! It enforces that what she knows is limited and it just happens to be applicable. It was brilliant, though, to be able to use her cosmetics knowledge to the court room and prove them wrong. I cheered for her!caroline yihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04737727537110164054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674020521440547212.post-77192855758612585952009-10-21T23:22:02.779-04:002009-10-21T23:22:02.779-04:00The dumb blonde is probably one of the most drawn ...The dumb blonde is probably one of the most drawn out, overused stereotypes.

I think that although she does embody all these typical, comical blonde stereotypes, such as being obsessed with pink, being the president of her sorority, and constantly going to the nail salon- I believe ultimately by winning a court case based off of a murder trial breaks all the dumb blonde stereotypes Elle embodies because she comes out on top!Courtney Plavachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04628376430940595775noreply@blogger.com
