The Origin of Blonde Jokes/ Some Brunette Jokes

Here is what I have found in my search for the origin of the blonde jokes! 

From Wikipedia

The blonde stereotype, the stereotypical perception of blond-haired women, has two aspects. On one hand, over the history, blonde hair in women has been considered attractive and desirable. On the other hand, a blonde woman is often perceived as making little use of intelligence, as a "woman who relied on her looks rather than on intelligence."

People tend to presume that blondes are less serious-minded and less intelligent than brunettes, as reflected in "blonde jokes." The roots of this notion may be traced to Europe, with the "dumb blonde" in question being a French courtesan named Rosalie Duthe, satirised in a 1775 play Les curiosites de la Foire for her habit of pausing a long time before speaking, appearing not only stupid but literally dumb (in the sense of mute).

From Yahoo Answers

"Marilyn Monroe" started the whole "Dumb-Blonde" thing.. But, believe it or not, she was only that way on T.V., its what made her "Famous!" That and her Beauty! And well, the notorious affair with the Prez!! From there, the jokes just gradually became like the old "Pollack, jokes".. Very famous! 

One possible reason is that babies are born with fair hair, almost blonde that darkens over time so blonde may imply a childlike demeanor.

According to enwikipedia.org, the dumb blonde joke is defined as a category of jokes that focus on people whose hair color is blonde, but lacks common sense and academic intelligence. This stereotype of the dumb blonde is taken to an extreme, a laughable extreme in these types of jokes. The dumb blond joke usually falls into two categories: the joke pertaining to a blonde who gets into a stupid or dangerous situation because they have misconstrued certain words. For example:Why don't blondes eat pickles? Answer: Because they get their heads stuck in the jar. And second, the joke where one blonde asks a ridiculous question and the second blonde replies with an even stupider answer.
What do you call a brunette between two blondes? Answer: An Interpreter. How the dumb blonde joke originated is unknown, but it is speculated it has something to do with how blonde babies are perceived, as innocent and naive. As a result, a pretty blonde child might act simplistic and immature in order to continue to receive a lot of attention. 

There were many other articles too. Nothing is for sure though and it would be VERY difficult to hunt down the exact instigator of the jokes. They are just popular right now and blondes are going to have to deal with it... it's just one of those things... -sigh-...  So, BLONDES, pull yourselves together and show the world that we ARE SMART!!! Woo hoo!!! And remember! The brain has nothing to do with looks. Does anybody else have the scoop on the jokes? Yes, no, ... maybe so?

So in other words you could put just about any hair color in a joke and it comes out so cheesy that it's Gouda. ;)
