[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes women like "bad" men in spite of their bad qualities.  As others have pointed out, a really good-looking guy might become arrogant or entitled about women, but his good looks mean that some women will always be attracted to him anyway.  As they get older, more women will figure out that the hotness isn't worth the bad behavior, but he will probably still be able to find women interested in a short-term or less serious relationship.  But it's not the badness that attracts them, it's the good looks or wealth or whatever.

And some women are attracted to bad men because they think that they can "fix" them.  They've been taught that men are just wild/bad but that "the love of a good woman" will tame/gentle/fix them.  They'll excuse his jerk behavior as the result of him having been "hurt" by a previous relationship or his mean parents or whatever, and convince themselves that they can heal him.  Both men and women can be "white knight" personalities, who choose needy or damaged partners because they can "rescue" them.  [/quote]
