Not all women who dye their hair blonde do it for male attention. That is true of the majority of middle schoolers/high school underclassmen who are very immature and think blonde hair will get them a boyfriend, but I think most mature women have better reasons.

Naturally, I have light brown hair with some blonde highlights. And naturally my hair is pretty boring. When I was younger I was blonde, but it darkened with age. I missed my blonde hair because it was much prettier looking than my boring shade of light brown, so I started to get highlights. At this point, it’s gotten really light, especially with the summer, but most people think it’s completely natural anyway. I just look better with lighter hair and wanted a change. It was all for me.

Additionally, one of my best friends is a dark brunette who is currently transitioning to blonde. Her reason? She felt she needed a major change in her life and is accomplishing it via a drastic change in hair color. Another instance where it was a change completely for herself.

Just wanted to put in my 2 cents that not everyone dyes their hair to attract/for the approval of the opposite sex.
