But then there's Edith Keeler, Janice Lester, Helen Noel, Marlena Moreau, Kelinda, Shahna, Miramanee, Antonia...
Well, let's see... Janice Lester was an A-1 Nutball, which is apparently why Kirk broke up with her. They did date for a year, though, IIRC.
Helen Noel is someone he apparently flirted with for a bit & then cut it off once he realized that she was a member of his crew. I'd say that the subsequent attraction was more one-way there, so in my mind that doesn't really count.
Marlena Moreau was involved with Kirk's counterpart, and we don't really know what may or may not have happened between the Prime Universe versions once Kirk got home (but considering that she was
also a member of his crew, I'm guessing not much).
Kelinda is another blonde. Shahna's hair color is not natural to Earth women.
Kirk was suffering from amnesia and not in his right mind while he was romancing Miramanee.
As I recall, we never really got a good look at Antonia, but I agree that from her name she was likely a brunette (but if someone named "Leila Kolomi" can be a blonde woman with a slight English accent, I suppose all bets are off).
Edith Keeler, I'll absolutely give ya. I think she was all the more striking to Kirk for
not being his usual type.
Meanwhile, I forgot a few more blondes... Lenore from "The Conscience of the King," Deela from "Wink Of An Eye," and Drusilla from "Bread and Circuses."
