From what I have seen is that most American women go after bad boys and get banged up. Then they look for a god boy to raise their little tyrant.
This is what is called hypergamy. Every woman does this.
This behavior you note is called alpha f##ks/beta bucks.
You can google any of these terms and get a huge amount of info.
The Red Pill calls it the Alpha F***s, Beta bucks syndrome.
There are 3 types of men, so I think the article is missing one.
1. Wussy beta males who are trying to fit the bill of what the media and feminists want men to act like. No leadership or strength whatsoever.
2. Alpha males or just decent strong masculine hardworking men - Masculine, kind, strong, virtuous, don’t put up with bullshit, protectors of the weak, will punch out the lights of anyone threatening their family. Generally have some leadership skills and like to help lesser men who are good men become better men.
3. Bad boys - Super masculine, unstable, reckless, irresponsible, usually law breaking/dishonest, usually extremely flawed, violent or abusive.
The problem is that most women cannot tell the difference between #2 and #3 because the good #2’s are much more rare these days. Their natural instinct drives them toward a protector and the bad boys are very flashy and noticeable.
And this instability and poor decision making is why just about every single culture that has ever existed strived to control their females.
The control of females and their capricious desires is a fundamental foundation of societies. All of them.
