wait so men can’t be blonde or have numbers or pronouns or be promoted in the White House is that right

oh yes that’s right the sledging should be targeted at the people calling out injustice, rather than the people perpetrating injustice

Blonde is the feminine form, blond is the masculine form. So no, men can’t be blonde :)

It’s a funny little word. I have no idea where that rule comes from, but somehow I was made to learn it, and now it;s stuck in my head.

Though modern usage differs from the traditional.

Probably a carry over from old French.
