You see, you have just proven my point (and that woman's point) here. That woman (and others) are attracted to masculinity, not "badness." That's the point Zekko and I have been making. Others on here continue to insist that women are attracted to immoral guys as if there was some biological advantage to immorality.Atom Smasher said:Guys, this idea that you keep harping on, that men on this forum are obsessed with and worship "bad boys", and that they consider them "gods" (to quote Zekko) are fabrications in your own minds. You are misinterpreting.
Clearly, most men in this forum think that "bad boys" are JERKS. Idiots. Losers.
But the fact remains that women are attracted to rebelliousness, confidence, and self-direction in men. Therefore they respond to the "bad boy" with attraction on a very basic, subconscious level. Every last one of them does, despite their (and your) verbal protestations.
In order to leverage this fact to our advantage, we can develop confidence, self-direction and even a bit of rebelliousness (if channeled toward a positive outcome) in order to trigger those automatic responses in women.
In essence, I (and many others) am talking about adopting the traits of the "bad boy" and integrating those traits toward a positive end. To put it another way, "bad boys" present an overly-amplified and uncontrolled example of masculinity. The trick for us is to take those masculine traits and integrate them into ourselves in a controlled manner.
That formula produces a well-balanced man, in her eyes a little dangerous and unpredictable, but still reliable and safe (again, in her eyes).
The truth is that the most successful people in the world are those who are part of the establishment, not those rebelling against it. Most of the richest people in the world attended good universities and dress in suits and ties. You will actually find that they tend to be quite conservative.
Of course most of these people are daring and bold (you have to take risks to reap big rewards). They are quite confident and aggressive in their pursuit of success and these are all qualities that turn women on. But being rebellious won't help you if you don't have other traits going for you (looks, charisma, money etc.)
