It’s the bad boys

Why is it that so many women who should know better are so attracted to the bad boys?

In the religious world these guys are probably defined at least in part as the ones who aren’t so religious, maybe drink, maybe do dope, maybe have a murky past or even murkier friends.  The guys who blow smoke into your face, stand you up, and then sit you down while they flirt with the waitress.  But when they turn their somewhat seedy charm on you…you’re lost again… (and you can’t know that in 20 years time, “seedy” will be all that’s left of the charm)

And then I hear over and over again from the “good guys” that the girls consider them too “goody-goody”, that being nice to a girl is a turn-off, that girls only want to be friends with them, nothing more…these are the guys who are too “nice”…

I have no answers.  Only a recommendation.  Keep an open mind about the nice guys… you may even find something attractively bad about them…

And an ode to the bad boys, from x-factor no less!

    Well, bad boys are definitely more attractive, but let me assure you. There are good boys out there, who happen to be smoking or smoking a j every now and then.
    I say, keep an open mind for goody goody, but also for those who do not fit a specific label, are still a little like little kids, but are Mentche’s. Keep away from the REALLY bad ones.
