I've heard some people claim girls prefer bad boys
Yes.
Many times the bad boys exhibit alpha man behavior ; aggressiveness , aloofness, willingness to throw down in a street brawl and an overall fuck you attitude. At least you will see this with most violent criminals involved in gangs, fights , bank robberies, murders , muggings , petty theft, and drug dealing.
Women eat this shit up even though they won't admit it in 10,000 years. This bad boy alpha behavior is the behavior that would guarantee survival, access to resources, and protection from large animals and enemy tribes when our species was evolving hundreds of thousand of years ago. Women can't help but be sexually attracted to these types.
As a side note this usually does not apply to white collar crime like tax evasion, fraud , money laundering , or some type of scam. The guys who do exclusively this type of crime are more beta in their behavior.
When it comes to sex crimes such as rape or child molestation 99% of women will not be turned on by this especially crimes against children. Pedophiles are hated everywhere and they will usually require some special protection when they are sent to prison - if not they will be eaten alive once they are in the slammer.
Most Helpful Opinions
While I may prefer Saint on the Streets, Nasty as fuck in the sheets, science tells us that women prefer nice guys over bad guys. Think about it like this... Would you place a lot of trust in a person who selects bad people as their mate, or would you rather distance yourself from them and their bad influence of a partner?
But don't take my word for it... Here are a few studies.

In parting, if you come across a narcissist, run the other direction, and don't look back.
no, not for me. I think some people are exaggerating the bad boy type, we don't mean a criminal. for me a bad boy type is someone who parties, can easily get the girls, drinks and smokes. I don't know about the other ladies maybe they actually like or prefer criminals lol
There are a few mentally unstable women who find incarceration to be an attractive trait in men. They will go as far as writing letters and even marriage to a man behind bars.
I'm definitely not one of them.

Yes, it is true. No matter how many girls deny it, all you have to do is get to know different criminal men and you will see that most of them DO have long term girlfriends. From what I have seen in real life there is a MUCH higher percentage of criminal/scumbag kinds of guys that have a girlfriend than normal guys having girlfriends. And those women often stay with them even through many arguments, cheating, drugs, alcohol, etc.
Go see for yourself. Meet some criminal scumbag people and I'd bet that the majority of them DO have girlfriends.
Not all girls, but a very significant demographic of them do in the U. S. Some even go as far as marrying convicts who are still in prison. Part of the reason is because a lot of American women are attracted to that waywardness in men, believing that it signifies a guy being tough and courageous, and it doesn't matter race these women are either.
Did you hear about the situation with Jose Alba in NYC? He defended himself from a guy who came into his shop to confront him about turning his girlfriend away when her card declined at checkout. The dude who confronted Jose already had a known history of crime and violence, and his girlfriend knew it and still wanted to be with him. This is not uncommon.
god no! maybe the young dumb immature girls. but how could you ever build a life with someone like that?
This is such a BS. I wouldn't date a criminal... i am not living in weird songs like Britney spears criminal
When we say we like bad boys, we mean college boys who smoke weed or highschool boys who do pranks.
Criminal ≠ bad boy
I wouldn’t say that’s true for most women but their are some girls that are into it. I heard Chris Watts gets love letters frequently.
I am not. I got two kids and don't need that
definitely not, i personally think it's a thing of like drama romance series and wattpad. there may be some, but surely not a common belief. men are more attractive when they at least try to make smart and clever decisions, when knowing where their head is at and with who.
What women are atracted to is rarely ever just 1 characteristic. Its almost always been combination of so many many many things combined.
One thing I do beöieve is that men with criminal records are far more accepted than men straight out of mental institutions.Not for me. I stay away from them.
I look for quality man with good family values/good education. Mentally/physically healthy to have a family.No. I want a good guy who’s my baddie in bed.
My husband goes to the office in the morning and pays for our house and two cars by not being in jail, and that's what I prefer

I don't know about other women but I don't like criminals and I don't understand this "bad boy" thing. I want someone who has no criminal record.
Not true. Girls who are attracted to men like that usually either have daddy issues or other issues going on or is very young.
No woman who has her life together is looking meet a criminal.I've robbed a bank with just a pencil.
I've scammed the biggest mafia.
I've killed a guy. Only with my THUMB! 😎

😂😂😂😂😂If you are talking about the grand majority of the population. No, absolutely not. How ever there are always minority that do not fit the general majority.
Maybe a few, but I sure know it was never something that interested me and I doubt many others either.
Yeah if the girl has issues. Daddy issues, self esteem issues, emotional issues etc. I know because I am that girl 😪
Some men like Karens and female criminals too.
It's a mental condition called Hybristophilia
No. We’re attracted to a guy we know will protect us.
