Read carefully: "...What is a bad boy? He's a rebel without a cause, a cool dude in a motorcycle jacket, a real-life Huckleberry Finn who wants to take you on a wild river ride to adventure. He's wounded, moody, misunderstood-a dreamer, a seducer, a daredevil. He is a man of mystery and a fascinating paradox. He's both a lost little boy and a man with a dark side. He breaks your heart with his wicked ways, but whether he's a wanton wolf or a dangerous desperado, he makes you long to rescue him from his pain. He's hurtful cruel, or simply careless and self-absorbed, but you can't resist jumping on his motorcycle and roaring off into the steamy night with him. And once you've given him your heart forever... he's gone with the wind! He is someone who sets off throbbing sexual and aggressive passions within you. Because he's aloof and elusive, you get caught up in the challenge and excitement of the chase-though he's not always someone you'd really want even if you did capture him. A bad boy may tell you he's generally right. He's a frog you hope to turn into a fairy-tale prince with the magic of your kiss..." Carol Lieberman
This is by far the greatest definition you will ever find about a bad boy. This is what is at the core of bad boys, all their actions and behavior stem from what's described above. Bad boys aren't necessarily bad, heck I'd connsider myself one but I don't posses the negative side that stereotypical bad boys do. I love and respect women and would NEVER hurt them in any way. and no I don't have any piercings or tattoos lol.

The reason girls are attracted to "bad boys" is because they are a "challenge". Its hard for the girl to tell if this type of guy really likes her or not. He keeps her thinking about him (by not calling and texting every few days), and questioning herself. Bad boys act like they are very busy...and have a life. They don't hang on every word a girl tells him...and he give the impression that he couldn't care less if the smokin hot girl likes him or not. He's usually talking to many girls...and not stuck on just one. If he gets a girls number...he might not call for a week. The bad boy shows confidence, patience, and self control.
Above is the "good" version of the "bad boy". Their are versions that are total losers, and enjoy mistreating and using women. They have bad attitudes, hot tempers, and no respect for women.
Yeah I sometimes can tell if some guy is a bad boy just from looking at him.
And most of the time I'm right. And his actions proves that.
I don't know it's just something has to do with the so-called women intuition.
Maybe his style, his behavior, the way he dresses or speaks or something like that, sometimes just his facial features tells me that.
However, I don't like to prejudge people from their appearance but I don't even come close to these guys who give me the aura of a bad-boy. Until they prove the opposite, then I can be comfortable to them. And they rarely prove the opposite.
Subjective but One definition vs another. Like tell me what make a good girl vs another average girl... I know a guy who had tattoos, piercing, and was homeless. He wasn't even bad but working on his education and when someone punch him in the shelter he didn't fight bad but let a crew person know. Is he bad? I don't know it but it is very subjective. Does being a bad boy the same as an abusive guy vs a guys who has no manner.
What you said in your first sentence is true. Imagine James Bond. The guy is confident, is good in bed (though not always true), and shows he can protect girls from bullies and rapist. That is the good. The bad is he is not very responsible, probably has a criminal record, a bad temper and may have occasionally verbally and physically abused his girl.
