Although my boyfriend does fit the physical description of a thug that some have given, I have never considered him as such. He does wear baggy jeans, Tims, and jerseys all the time, but he is also a college student in his early twenties. This is the basic uniform fo rmen his age and in his situation. If he were knocking on forty, I might have to reconsider.
To answer the question, I don't want a thug in any way, shape or form. When someone says "thug," I think of a weed smoking, forty ounce drinking, foul mouthed man with little ambition and most likely an illegal job. That is not at all appealing to me. I do, however, want a man with confidence and street smarts. By street smarts, I mean the ability to read other people, to handle sticky situations with the least amount of drama and hassle, and to be able to defend me physically if the situation ever arises. I have to be able to know that my man can knock someone out for me if it comes down to it. (Thank the Lord that Boyfriend has a black belt).
