The bad boy type.... (girls only)

[Derryck]

Answer these questions to the best of your ability:

What is a bad boy?
What is attractive about them?
How do I be one without being a jerk?

I did not post this to hear:
"I don't like bad boys", because that would be a lie.
"Just be yourself", because that isn't working.
"It's impossible to be a bad boy without being a jerk", because god damn it I want answers.

[LouBerry]

Bad boys are assholes who parade around like they're hard shit.

Nothing is attractive about them, I go for brains.

You can't. Also, you don't just...become a bad boy. It's a personality trait, I think. Some people are just standoffish and rude and "cool". Others have smarts and humor and all the things in life that actually might be useful someday.

I'm not going to tell you to be yourself, because you're going to do whatever you want, but I'll tell you this, no one likes a try hard. If you are acting like something you're not, you're going to fail.

What is a bad boy? Boys who are mysterious, rebellious, and just don't give a damn
What is attractive about them? idk.
How do I be one without being a jerk? pretty simple, being a bad boy doesn't make you a jerk. Just some bad boys are. I guess just be mysterious and cool without being mean, judgmental, etc

I did not post this to hear:
"I don't like bad boys", because that would be a lie. no it's not, some girls actually don't like bad boys
"Just be yourself", because that isn't working. well idk, don't change yourself for a girl, you'll just end up miserable

Would you like to explain how you know that not liking a bad boy is a lie? Are you a girl...? You make these broad assumptions about women when you DONT KNOW JACK SHIT ABOUT THEM.

I don't like bad boys. Why? Because they're usually douche bags and irresponsible. Would you like to try to prove that I'm lying?

[numbness]

What is a bad boy? a man who doesn't give a dam,expresses himself has attitude
What is attractive? they seem to not give a dam about anyone apart from you and they make you feel safe
how do I be one without being a jerk? as long as you make the girl feel special and don't treat her badly when your around your friends all should be good ;)and yeah I love "bad boys "

Here's my logic: In the wild, the females always go after the dominating, aggressive assholes. This is not so different in the human mind. Some of that primitive desire for a dominant mate still exists in girls today. While some girls ARE able to dominate that power=good mentality, all girls still have a little bit of it.

Science!

No offense, but that is complete bull. Attraction is entirely subjective and varies from person to person. Not only that, but the type of person one likes can also vary; not everyone has a certain specific type. I think what is attractive about bad boys is how careless they seem to be. I watch girls go after bad boys like they are emaciated wolves and the guy is meat. They often give off this air of apathy, as if they need you as much as a fish needs a bicycle. That draws some people. Take note that I said "some". Girls that are drawn to that think they can be the one to "tame" the bad boy. Not only do they exude this indifference, but they are typically jerks. Noted, you said not to say that. It doesn't make it any less true, however. I don't feel like answering every question in your survey, to be honest. I find this is still fueling this obsession you seem to possess to have girls falling off of you. I've always liked nice or funny guys. Those are my favorite to be around. I don't like being around complete asses.

Why would girls like an "I don't give a crap" attitude?

[Mob Boss]

Why would girls like an "I don't give a crap" attitude?

That exact attitude they exude makes them seem hard to get. Dangling something you can't have in front of you makes you desire it that much more, right? Also that "jerky" behavior they often seem to commonly have seems to trigger emotions in women that make them irresistibly attractive. Women don't choose who they feel attracted to. Im sure you could pinpoint certain quality and traits that a certain person likes, but they don't choose to like them. Are you catching my drift? In other words, if a girl likes a bad boy you can't change that. If a girl is attracted to good guys, you can't change that either. Whatever it is you are, you shouldn't be changing. Improving? Yeah, but not changing. Be yourself but yourself should also be confident. Don't confuse confidence with arrogance. Whatever you are will attract girls that like the traits you have. Don't change yourself because I think you'll discover you're unhappy.

[badthoughts]

The OP asked for girls only, but I'm posting anyways. Total bad boy move on my part.

Dude, don't worry about all this shit that you're worrying about. I know you have questions about girls and relationships and all that jazz, and while I'm not discouraging you from asking, and even though the internet is a decent place to get some answers, the best place to get them is in life. Quit posting desperate shit and just figure it out. Let me put it this way: the guys that get the most tail aren't posting for advice on the internet. Figure it out.

[conniption]

Why do you assume all girls want bad boys? You've been watching too much TV. Trust me, no girl will be around to watch you be a "bad boy" when you're making shit assumptions that you justify with shittier logic.

[Elysium]

What is a bad boy?
Uh, I don't know? A guy who likes getting in trouble, bending rules, maybe.
What is attractive about them?
Absolutely nothing. To clarify, a guy may be attractive, but not because he calls himself a "bad boy." Actually, if a boy seriously called himself a "bad boy" I'd laugh in his face.
How do I be one without being a jerk?
Not to be harsh, but this sounds ridiculous. You can't just try to mold yourself into an image that, first of all, is not easily defined in a nice little scientific category, and second of all, is not you.

[Melodic]

What is a bad boy?
A guy who takes a lot of risks and challenges and is a trouble maker, and apparently wins the girl in each cheesy romantic movie.
What is attractive about them? The only time they're attractive to me are in those cheesy romantic movies.
How do I be one without being a jerk?
1) If you're not already one, don't become one. 2) This is entirely impossible because most "bad boys" are jerks.

[skittles_was_here]

What is a bad boy? a bad boy is the type of guy you're parents want you to stay away from, they're mostly assholes but not always.
What is attractive about them? the fact that your parents want you to stay away, and that they're so care-free and don't give a shit
How do I be one without being a jerk? rebel and do bad things (not SUPER bad tho XD) but remember your friends and care, don't let it affect...the way you interact with humans i guess... XD

[Cece14]

What is a bad boy? A dare devil who isnt afraid to get dirty
What is attractive about them? They are hot
How do I be one without being a jerk? Dont try to be one, be yourself

Sorry Derryck but you don't get to say something is science without referring to some actual published scientific results. Human behaviour is a LOT more complicated than you believe.

Here's my logic:

I've already stated this before but I'll say it again: you need to stop assuming to know what women like or don't like because you have little to know experience with them. I mean it's common sense really...unless you live under a rock you should know that not all girls like the same thing. Yeah, some girls might like the stereotypical "bad boy" but from my experience nice girls like nice, responsible, intelligent guys.

Also, I really don't see how your "logic" is true, and it's definitely not science just because you put "Science" after it. That's your opinion about women and quite frankly it's not accurate and it definitely doesn't pertain to all women.

Talk to an expert. We can go on and freaking on about this, but I'm gonna let you figure out you're wrong on your own. Have a nice day. :bye:

[Apophis]

I'm actually pissed off about this bad boy stuff now! every girl I see they are with a guy with tattoos, piercings and got their pants almost dragging to the ground, meanwhile they are getting hurt by them cause they are cheating on them! I'm not trying to be mean but those are the types of guys are annoying me! every time I see a girl they are with a tattooed/piercing guy.. either way that's why I think I've been single for so long is cause girls aren't interested in a good guy anymore..

What I mean by that is all girls have an instinctual desire for a douche. Regardless of what you actually LOOK for, all girls generally have a primitive desire for a bad boy.

Is this a well known fact or one you just made up from your own mind and/or judgement of the female universe?

Are you sure about that? Because I hate those kind of people. I like smart, nice people. But they don't like me.

Smart girls like yourself are able to suppress it.

Look at the animal world. It would make sense that it would carry over to humans in the form of instinctual taste in a dominant male.

[Stronk Serb]

Your logic is illogical. Some girls like the douche type because they are hard to reach. The dominant male in the Homo Sapiens species is a man who is there for his family and supports it, not some douche who leaves his girl when she gets pregnant. A real man deals with all problems, while a "bad boy" (the type you describe) runs away from them. Many girls (at least here) want a man who can protect and care for them, not a jerk.

[ksdnfkfr]

Perhaps the type of girls who like bad boys are bad girls?

[Emerald Dream]

I suppose I will throw my thoughts into this whole idea of "bad boys" that you seem to be obsessing over.

"What is a bad boy?"
That's kind of hard to answer because different people have different opinions on this. To me, the bad boy tag means the same thing as rebel - someone who does a lot of acting without thinking and pretty much has a lot of disregard for others (including himself). I think the idea behind the appeal of this to some people is that a "bad boy" is mysterious and enigmatic.

"What is attractive about them?"
This is a personal answer from me. As much as you will disagree, and seem to typecast all girls as loving a "bad boy"....this type of guy really does NOT appeal to me. I am not big on mystery, unless I am reading a book. I am not interested in a guy I can "mold" or "reform" in any way. I like guys that are intelligent and nice to me, and not so mysterious. I have no interest in some idea of a BS whirlwind relationship with a guy where I either have to guess what he is thinking or going to want to do, or someone I have to coddle because he is too much of an ass to act like an adult. In my opinion, most of the stuff you have in your head about how girls love the rebel in the leather jacket - that crap is for the movies.

"How do I be one without being a jerk?"
You don't try to be anything other than who you actually are. There will always be people who will like/dislike the type of person that you are. Don't worry about trying to change yourself. I think that will end up causing you more problems, since you are not being yourself that way. There is a whole range of things/people in life that appeal to different people.

You stop talking about it because you know you can't win. That's fine, typical evasive maneuver.

Also, Louberry, Evelyn Salt and Allison have already said they don't like them as well...so it should really be obvious right now that assuming all girls like them is wrong.

No, I just don't like you. :yes:

I believe them.

Lol I don't like you either but that's no excuse to make illogical statements and not support them when they're challenged.

[Waleedbt]

I can't believe this thread is still alive.

Let it go man, you're that desperate!!?
The idea of a bad boy is just in Films, but think of it this way.., they are more confident than others? Im not completely sure, but i guess.
