A ventriloquist is touring the clubs and stops to entertain at a small
town bar. He's going through the usual run of 'stupid blond' jokes when a
tall blonde woman in the fourth row stands up on her chair and says, " I've
heard just about enough of your denigrating blonde jokes, butthead."
>
The audience sat stunned, while the blonde continued. "What makes you
think you can stereotype women that way? What the heck does a person's
physical attributes have to do with their worth as a human being or with their
intelligence? It's guys like you who keep women like me from being
respected at work and in their communities, from reaching their full potential
as persons, because you and your kind continue to perpetuate
discrimination, not only against blondes but against women at large, and all in the name of humour!!"
>
Visibly flustered, the ventriloquist begins to apologize, but the
blonde interrupts him, saying "You stay out of this, Mister. I'm talking to
that little creep on your knee!"
