Bad Boys are all around us and guess what, they are almost irresistible, that is why characters like Charlie Boy and Terry G is fascinating to a lot of people.
The is the same reason why most people will support Olamide instead of Don Jazzy any time, any day.
They smoke, they have tattoos, they are alcoholics. There are so many negatives attached to Bad boys, yet there are women who want and seriously desire a bad boy in their life.
The question is are they just trying to attain the unattainable of they just like the challenge of making him fall in love.
Here are Three reasons why women fall for bad boys
Great Sex
In a recent study conducted by the University of Michigan’s School of Public Health in 2007, women were asked to judge potential mates by how masculine their features were. It was discovered that men with masculine traits are seen as good short-term partners, while those with more feminine traits such as a rounder face and fuller lips are perceived as better long-term mates.
Women usually get turned on by the full muscles and the sexiness bad boys elude. For some reason you just know that he is great in bed and this is the key to a great relationship.
The Challenge
The possibility of converting a Bad Boy from a serial playboy into a loving, supportive, feeling man is a strong pull for Bad Boy-addicted women, but it’s also the reason some women left them.
One woman said “My motivation for dating bad boys is the fire of attitude they bring to the table. The challenge is what brought me to them, but the fire of never knowing what’s next, and them being great in bed is what keeps you with them…. for a short period of time. I could never stay with him for long, because what attracted me to him is inevitably what made me leave him in a few weeks. Who wants a challenge forever?”
The Thrill
Doing something that was against the norm (or against parents’ wishes) was also cited as a key motivating factor. Doing the wrong thing has an appeal, even if it’s only for a short time.
Society in general—and the media in particular—LOVE to paint the Bad Boy as the black hole of masculinity. That is to say, that nothing can escape them… no woman can resist their magnetism, no Nice Guy is nice enough to keep a woman away from their pull.
In truth, it’s up to women to realize that they not only should be wanting more than what the short-shelf-life Bad Boy can provide them, they deserve more.
