Why Do Girls Always Go For Bad Boys?
« on: November 11, 2005, 10:05 PM »

when i say bad i don't mean like bad, bad, bad.

Today in class this was like a heated argument in my class and I came to realise that what my teacher said is true.  Girls do not want their guys to be the boy in suit or a plain white shirt.  They want to see you in baggy pants and braided hair. 

Well I know not all girls are like this but I love me a bad boy!.  Sometimes gentlemen can be so nerve wrecking.  They always the kind of perfect people and you (the girl) always looks bad.

Well people I want to know why this is happening?

I will speak for myself...I like an exciting guy. Baggy clothes and braids are a big turn off to me. I like guys that are adventurous and exciting. Sometimes,bad guys fit this profile and sometimes good guys fit this profile. Either way, I prefer the good guys because they are more likely to be trustworthy.

i agree with Lullaby.

baggy pants don't really make someone a bad guy (that's just an "a la mode" type of clothing) braids i hate. i don't like guys in braids. it's a preference issue and i prefer dreads  Kiss

at rihanna, what's your definition for the "bad guy" you're talking about?
do you mean guys that smoke weed or guys that cheat or what do you mean by bad guy. dressing and appearance alone doesn't define if you're bad or good. it's just a stereotype that guys in baggy pants are bad.

i personally can't' stand bad guys (my definition of it maybe different from yours). and my definition include GUYS THAT TRY HARD TO BE BAD BECAUSE THEY THINK GIRLS LIKE IT!.. .

Girls always go for bad boys simply because they themselves are bad girls!  That's all there is to it.   Wink

personaly i don't agree wit seun
u don't have to be a bad girl for u to like/want a bad boy

i think thinks bad boys are good but the come with consequences such as u wouldnt be able to trust them as much,but then the good guys are just to good

when i said "bad guys" i didn't mean like  smoke weed, and all the bad stuff. i meant like actin' tough and other stuff. like nobody wants a "sisi" for a boyfriend. although these "sisies" may treat u well i dun like it when a guy is too good! or too nice. like he's never had a ticket, always polite never argues wit' u, agrees wit' everythin' u say. goes where u want him to go, does what u want him to do, all these really make me sick. i dun care how much love it is.

are you saying "sisies" and "dummies" are good guys
while "caring" and "strong guys" are bad guys?


i think you mixed it up.

what category do the weed smoking guys fall into "good" or "bad" guys?

If a girl likes a "bad" boy knowing that he's bad, then she's a bad girl too because birds of like feathers flock together!

I think we have different definitions of a bad boy because what Rihanna is describing here to me is a strong but not bad boy. And the good boy she is describing is not good boy but mumu boy.

This is not true.  She described god boys as "the boy in suit or a plain white shirt", "gentlemen", "perfect people".  Are you saying that only a 'mumu' (dullard) will bother to wear modest clothes, be a gentleman and live a 'perfect' (that is, responsible) life?

An socially inexperienced boy (who doesn't know how easy it is to get into a girl's pants) will gain experience with time, but a bad boy (a player who knows what to do to excite a lady and get into her pants) will never become a good boy no matter how much you love him.

If one boy's social inexperience irritates you more than another boy's arrogance and manipulativeness, then you deserve what's coming to you.  That is, heartbreak. Wink

What are you talking about? Let me quote Rihanna again...

Quote from: rihanna on November 13, 2005, 08:41 PM
always polite never argues wit' u, agrees wit' everythin' u say. goes where u want him to go, does what u want him to do.

so this is what you call social inexperience? No. I call it submissiveness. Infact the attitude described above is that of a bad boy - he does everything a girl wants him to do just to get in her pants. A good gentleman can't possibly do everything I ask him to do or agree with everything I say because I could be wrong sometimes. If he is a good boy, he would correct me in love, but a bad boy would just lead me on and say "Yeah baby, your wish is my command!" Tongue

I see a 'bad boy' as a player.......
One who'll take another girls number as soon as you turn your back.
One who'll have another girl in his place and leave you knocking at the door till you leave
one who'll whisper all the sweet nothings all girls want to hear into your ears only to have you hear him say it to someone else, and tell you "I was just playin' when he's confronted.
One who will do all sorts of naughty stuff to you in front of his friends, just because.
one who we know will only end up causing us sleepless nights!

We girls love em because they say & do all the right things, take us to all the right places, know all the right people.
They are so fake!

i think y'all r trippin'. being a bad guy does not mean u smoke weed n do crack.  good guys are like too perfect.  bad guys r not always playas. good guys r those guys that r like  PERFECT standin' next to them makes u feel guilty. i know it may be nice to always hear your boyfriend's name being called out for one  good thing or another but it would sometimes bother u. i had this boyfriend once n he was always like the submissive guy, his younger sister will like talk back at him n he'll be like "it's ok she's a kid" (he was only a year older than her) she'll send him to the store to get stuff for her!he'll do stuff for her as if she was his bigger sista  hell no! that was just too much for me. some good boys let everyone  treat them like crab just b/c they feel it's correct to be polite.  well i think this is what Rihanna is trying to say. girl if i'm right holla!!!!!!!!

First rihana she says a good boy is one who is respectfully dressed and nice, then later she implies that he is submissive.  She is simply confused about what makes a boy good or bad.  It is normal for a girl to be confused.

However, regardless of your definition of what makes a boy "bad", if you fall for him knowing what he is then you are "bad" yourself.  Regardless of how you see a "good" boy, if you consistently prefer to go out sith such a boy then you are a good girl, too. 

I am yet to come accross a submissive boy, so I think that if that is your definition of good boy, then they exist only in your dreams.  All the boys I know are out for sex and they will do whatever it takes to get sex including [i]pretending to be nice by accepting everything you say[/b].  That's what I refer to as social inexperience because if you understand girls, you will know that they do not recognize the difference between being nice and being weak, or being great and being arrogant!!
