Why don't they find polite men attractive?

I think I can answer this cause I am comitted to someone who once was a the typical bad guy, a player you can say, would keep changing girlfriends like clothes. I was initially taken aback cause he looked really cute and charismatic. He is the kind of guy who can say something really blunt but in such a way that would make girls weak in their knees. But as I got to know him I really really fell for him. His personality. He is dominating, assertive, action oriented , ambitious, strong headed, and since I am the typical shy quiet girl who keeps to herself, it is the perfect contrast I need in my life. I am extremely attracted to him, he doesn't shy away from calling out my stupidity from time to time. He knows when to take my words seriously and when to just shrug it off, and honestly? That's sexy as hell. He doesn't nod to everything I say. One time we were travelling in his car, and I got really seriously hungry, he stopped at a cafe before I could even complete my sentence and purchased eatables. Than when we continued our journey I wanted to eat more (lol) so I told him can we stop at a nearby restaurant, he said "No, we'll get late". I was disappointed that he didn't stop, but deep down I felt hot for him for being so assertive. I mean he did stop when it was needed. He is also physically protective, which I absolutely cherish. We re getting married soon. Sorry for my rant, but my point is women find assertiveness sexy, and attractive which many nice guys may or may not have.

Girls mostly find bad boys attractive. Women don't really find them all that attractive because they've gotten pass that stage. And some girls never liked bad boys to begin with. Bad boys prey on the naive and girls are usually naive and very impressionable. So it's easy to entice them.

I do not have a problem with women dating “bad boys”. Yes it’s stupid and ultimately self destructive but go ahead and date and sleep with whoever you want. You have free will.

But I have a serious problem when the inevitable happens i. e. the bad boy screws the woman over and now she’s a “victim” looking for shoulders to cry on.

She’s not a victim. She knew exactly what she was getting into and yet she thought she could “change” him and she failed. The writing was on the wall but she jumped head first into the dark pit anyway.

I truly believe at least 50% of male on female domestic violence, abuse (physical, emotional and sexual), etc. would never happen if so many women didn’t have this asinine mental quirk to begin with.

I am not going to preach for women to change because I believe this mental quirk is subconscious embedded. But quit complaining what the inevitable happens and you invited it. Seriously take accountability for your bad decisions on this one ladies. Again you are NOT a victim in this scenario when the “bad boy” does bad. It’s like petting a venomous snake and hoping it won’t bite you because you are “special” to it.

Is polite really the opposite of bad 😆 asker? I would think that the mass majority know that the titled “ bad boy “ is generally about attitude , confidence , dominance etc as these are the typical “masculine” attributes , that’s just as nature intended and so what attracts women on a basic level. Yeah sure some claim to prefer nice guys and that bad guys are for flings of passion and excitement but starting with confidence and a bit of charm and linguistic skills a smart man can easily switch it up and be the “bad guy” , If that’s how the game has to be played.

Several reasons. Although its usually not the bad itself.

Consider a villain vs a hero.

The villain is taking action.
The hero is reacting.

Similarly the bad boy type will always seem to be doing something. Even if that something is hurting you emotionally.

It is a whole lot easier to be attractive when you are the acting party. This is why for example, dominant personalities tend to be more generally attractive than submissive ones.

Plus, if they are already expected to be bad they get credit for anything good they do. Rather than having faults found whenever they do not.

Men also like bad women as far as attraction goes. But some things are fun to bring home, not to have at home.

I have oftened wondered, it is because they are immature, weak and toxic themselves. They have also been brainwashed by feminists and all the crap they see on TV. But of course that is no excuse, anyone with an ounce of sense does not get influenced by what they see in TV dramas or films.

I avoid women like this as if they were the plague, because no good is going to come of women going with guys like this and they will end up with baggage that i and other decent guys could do without.

Simple: because they believe they can change them and be their only girl for life. As well as the bad boy doing sexy things she likes in bed, especially if she likes it twisted & rough. I, for one, don't like actual bad boys. I know better than to play with that stuff. Being treated like crap isn't what I want in a partner.

Because woman have sexual drive, too. Exciting is attractive to hormones. Sex is chemical. Can't choose who you love. I have seen plenty of polite boys with a wild side so don't let them fool you with curb appeal: the body knows.

Women that have a very weak understanding of what confidence is mistake false bravado for confidence. It doesn't help that women feed into thier feelings rather steer away from them like men do. This is why sometimes women that haven't been taught better have to make this mistake once or twice... or a hundred times😆, before she learns from it.

Some  women find bad boys attractive.

lmkimcurious · Answer

It’s a misconception that bad boys are confident and nice guys are weak so they’re attracted to the confidence. It’s funny though because usually the bad boys are hiding their weakness by looking tough lol

If he's a bad boy, and you do all those bad, dirty, nasty things with him, it's his fault, he's bad. If you do them with a nice guy, you WANTED to.

Bad boys are polite. They’re just rebellious. Bad boys aren’t assholes (not the kind most girls really like, at least).
