Topic: Blond v Blonde
Sounds like a Mad Magazine series. But I've had, not exactly a debate, with several reviewers. I use 'blond' as an adjective to describe a woman's hair, and they say, no, it's 'blonde.' I respond with, no, 'blond' is an adjective and 'blonde' is a noun. It turns out that we're both not exactly right, but not exactly wrong, either.
'Blond' was originally a French word that insinuated itself into English. In America, especially, you can use 'blond' as an adjective for either gender, however, ''blonde' is the feminine form, so it would be correct to say, 'the blonde girl.' It is always correct to say, 'the blond girl.'
As a noun, 'blond' is masculine, 'blonde' is feminine, but some thought police think that to say of a woman, 'Go ask the blonde' would be a thought crime.
So there you are. 'Blond' is an adjective, and is fine for both genders; 'blonde' is also an adjective but only correct for the feminine; 'blonde' is a noun, but so is 'blond,' and the former is feminine, the later is masculine.
