[quote=Anonymous][quote=Elektra][quote=Anonymous]Players also help reduce the number of available good guys there are in the dating market. [b]The (otherwise) good guys see what sorts of behavior is rewarded by sex and attention and try to emulate that behavior. [/b][/quote]

But can you really call them "good guys" if they are susceptible to that kind of influence?[/quote]

Sure. Wanting sex isn't shameful (despite cultural messages to the contrary), and enjoying the romantic attentions of women is perfectly normal. These are very strong motivators for a great many men, good and bad alike. Responding to strong incentives doesn't make a guy bad. For guys motivated by these incentives (sex and attention), it comes down to a choice between reacting to what women say they want in a man or reacting to what women act like they want in a man. Words are wind, as the man said. To the extent women, particularly in those oh so formative teen years, are chasing after guys who treat people decently, there is no dissonance. But, to the extent they're chasing after the guys who gave other guys wedgies, the message comes across loud and clear.
