Yes, I'm asking about where Hitler got the idea, but also you can see it depicted in media from that era. The fit and beautiful blonde had been portrayed as the ideal and the desirable so much in things like the stereotypical surfer hunk, and Barbie and Ken, and the chain of blonde sex symbol has continued through today. Where did that start?
