Just curious as to if this has been the case, if so then it's died out. Hopefully the same can be said for racism in the future.
I know that Hitler preferred blondes, but have there been any other cases?
I seem to remember that in the middle ages there where some people that argued that redheads were evil, unthrustworthy, ...
There are many examples of redheads being stereotyped as untrustworthy in medieval times. The "Proverbs of Alfred" warn not to choose a red-haired person as a friend and the "Secretum Secretorum" warns against using redheads as advisors. Another manuscript, from the 14th century, notes that redheads are rarely faithful in friendship and a work published in 1659 denounced the "vulgar error" of "censuring red-haired men."
Not sure this is 100% solved yet though.
