Blonde Republican Sex Kitten
"We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blond
Who comes on at five
She can tell you 'bout the plane crash
With a gleam in her eye
It's interesting when people die"
—Don Henley, "Dirty Laundry"
A character type that shows that not all Republicans/conservatives are stuffy old men and that not all women are Democrats/liberals.
Like it says on the label, this character is female, attractive, and almost always blonde. Usually portrayed as more "traditional" in her gender expression than her politically opposite peers, though the characterization is by no means universal.
She'll sometimes be portrayed unsympathetically, as either a Stepford Smiler or a kind of grown-up, politicized Alpha Bitch. In these cases, she functions as an extension of the Strawman Political. Either way, since the emphasis is on her appearance rather than her views, it is a way to feature Republican characters without having anyone make Republican arguments, thus no risk of Strawman Has a Point. In these cases there's a reasonably good chance that she'll undergo a High Heel-Face Turn upon realizing her party bosses are evil, chauvinist pigs. Of course, by presenting an opponent as a hypersexualized hate object, the work embraces the very values it claims to be against.
There is also a nice chance that the Blonde Republican Sex Kitten is a Magnificent Bastard with a sharp mind that plays the "snobby feminine airhead" role because it's either convenient or expected from her. In that case, it may be the cover of a particularly sneaky Femme Fatale.
