You know what Hitman?

Here's another little secret most men don't know about women, and have trouble figuring out:

Women LIKE bad boys. Cads, or whatever you want to call them.

Now go back to your thread, you have a reputation to embellish.

I basically agree but reducing it to 'women like bad boys' isn't a secret, nor is it that meaningful. Some of us Freepers have discussed this paradigm often in the past. I personally think that it's not the bad boys they go after at the expense of the nice guys, it's just that they naturally find some bad boy qualities sexy, and find nice guy qualities listeless.

THE secret is that all a man has to do is have some bad boy qualities while remaining a nice guy. I dub that 'The Good Guy' - neither a bad boy nor a nauseatingly nice guy (which is to say, sexless).

And yep, embelishing the image is important in my life! I'm all talk, but the lady in my life appreciates that! ;-)

I will explain it to you.

In life, aggressiveness can get one further than ability.

And so women have evolved to be attracted to what they see as aggressive men.

You think women (intuitively) want to endow their children with the genes of nerds?

Not the best survival strategy from the standpoint of evolution.

The trick is some women are too stupid to differentiate between aggressive and borderline psycho.

And, of course, if a man is seen as aggressive and clever, too--then he's all the more attractive.

For the same reason, I strongly suspect that as much as women say they dislike a spouse who cheats on them--I suspect they secretly find it titillating; as once again having children by such a man would help to ensure the wide dissemination of your genes throughout the ensuing generations.
