A young ventriloquist was doing a show. With his dummy on his knee, he started going through his usual routine of “dumb blonde” jokes, when a blonde in the second row stood on her chair and started screaming:

 

“I’ve heard enough of your stupid blonde jokes!” she cried. “What makes you think you can stereotype women in that way? What does the color of a person’s hair have to do with her worth as a human being? It’s people like you who keep women like me from being respected at work and in the community and from reaching our full potential as people! It’s all because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against not only blondes, but women in general — and all in the name of humor!”

The embarrassed ventriloquist began to apologize, whereupon the blonde yelled, “You stay out of this — I’m talking to that little bastard on your lap!”
