All women love chocolate and blondes aren't all stupid, in fact some of the smartest women I know are blondes.

I imagine trying to pull that off with close friends just wouldn't work out.

I'm not too sure, that quote above could mean what was written down on the survey or they tested them out. I think the people doing this test wouldn't be able to do it due to (I think) The Computer Misuse Act being violated.
