Why women prefer Bad Boys

Sometimes the appeal of a bad boy is too hard to resist, explains Caroline Kent.

I'm often questioned by men who tell me they are "nice guys" but feel ignored by women who, they say, "prefer to be treated like crap". While I don't agree that nice guys always finish last, I do understand that we women do make some damn silly dating decisions.

Most of the men I know are kind, polite and adorable in practically every way, yet, like many women, I have an illogical soft-spot for massive jerks. There is something about bad boys that we find incredibly appealing, even though we often regret the experience afterwards.

I'm so drawn to their powerful/sensitive/artistic (delete as applicable) natures that it allows me to rationalise away their abusive, selfish, sarcastic or psychopathic side, until it's too late. I don't know whether it's chemistry or foolishness on my part, but let me try to explain why we - or at least I - do it.

Bad boys come in all shapes and sizes, often not befitting the James Dean stereotype of smouldering sex appeal. My first was from a chaotic background: brought up in foster care, a school dropout by 14, eyes the colour of caramel latte. But being a bad boy isn't about being from the wrong side of the tracks. My most recent mistake took the form of a middle-class technology software partner who wore J Crew. He didn't have much in common with my first bad boy at all, except for one thing: the way they treated me. And my God, it felt just as painful at 24 as it did at 14.

And just as euphoric. One thing that bad boys are not is boring. We are enraptured by their spontaneity, by the excitement and anticipation...

I love badest boy well well. Because he can move things and I can relate well with him because I bad too. Dating bad boy would mean no total commitment, and it gives me room to sample other guys. At least I won't be stuck in a relationship wen not married.

With time, y'all ladies that want ‘bad guys’ will come back from the dark side. You will all learn firsthand that bad guys are bad for you but, it might be TOO LATE by then.

Who's actually bad boy to you OP?

Is it someone who might be highly educated, or a drop-out, but who's street smart and rough around the edges - or someone who treats girls like shiit? You can be "bad" and rude, and not actually treat girls like shiit, as long as there's a level of understanding between the two parties on where they stand.

Most bad boys are actually upfront about who they're to chics, before anything takes place. If they want it to be just a friends with benefit thing, they'll tell you albeit in a not-so polite way, before you start getting emotions involved. And if they think you're the one, they will also tell you upfront about who they're, and ask you if you can deal with it.

Furthermore, most of the so-called "bad boys" are actually softies inside, but with a chip on their shoulders, with something to prove to everyone by being overly assertive. However, if you can demystify that, they're actually the most loving and caring guys.

And don't forget the protection that comes with a tough and assertive guy. Once you're with one, you know he's always going to have your back - and they're never scared.

P.S: I'm alluding to real bad boys - not fake thugs. grin

We blacks like pretending too much especially d ladies, its not d wAy u dress, talk or treat people that makes u a bad guy but d way u do it behind closed doors If u ask d ladies till thy kingdom come dey ll Neva tell u wot dey mean by "adventurous" all ladies like it hot and fast in different positions and places one can Neva imagine. At first d guys ll be scared of trying it but wen u eventually do she ll like it. Guys too pretend a lot but guy its good that way because if u a bad guy to 3 different ladies they ll become a thong in ur flesh and satisfying Dem all ll become wahala so pretend to odas why u remain a bad guy to d one u truly love.
