Dumb blonde? Where did that come from?

When I got to the last paragraph of Khun Songdej's letter, "Yingluck steps out of Thaksin's shadow", I said to myself, "This can't be the real Khun Songdej".

I perused the last name over and over to make sure it was right. Sure, it was.
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read the line, “.... and she [PM Yingluck] is no ‘dumb blonde’”. Khun Songdej, you are the last person on earth I expect to hear the phrase “dumb blonde” from.
I love jokes, but when it comes to blonde jokes, I think they are sexist, corny and tasteless.
