词汇 | blondenfreude |
词源 | Blondenfreude. A recent front-page story in the New York Times (5/23/02) about a prominent personality claims that “Blondenfreude, the glee felt when a rich, powerful, and fair- haired business woman stumbles, is the guilty pleasure of the age.” This is the earliest mention I can find of the word, which is clearly patterned on the German schadenfreude. Perhaps it was coined by the article’s authors, Alessandra Stanley and Constance L. Hays. |
