Bad blond men and good brunet men in fiction
Anyone ever noticed how in a lot of films and TV shows, there are often bad blond guys and dark haired good guys?**
The ASOIAF franchise is no exception, and it holds even within the Targaryens; the good ones are:
Jon Snow (GOT)
Jace (HOTD),
and in AKOTSK, Valarr (that might get misspelled).
Of course there are some bad dark haired guys, but blond guys seem to be antagonists more often than not
** Some examples off the top of my head: Cobra Kai in Karate Kid, the Soviet guy from Rocky franchise, Iceman in Top Gun, the Malfoys in HP, the Lannisters and most Targaryens in asoiaf....
