Touche--I thought about that after I posted. But I think it's more plausible than "age brings maturity." That's an even more dangerous one.

I agree and disagree with you PB.
No, I can't change a guy. A guy has to want to change himself 1st. I totally wouldn't try and change a guy, because I wouldn't find interest in him in the 1st place if I feel he's someone that I would have to try and change.
I've always wanted a faithful old fashioned guy who has the same moral values that I have. Ya know, a guy that would put me 1st like I would him, not someone that doesn't care anything about me. I've never cheated and I never will. I like the old fashioned, faithful, true gentleman. Kinda reminds me of someone.

Exactly - the "I'm in my 30s/40s/50s/etc. and am now more knowledgable" bugs me. I have seen 22 year olds make very mature decisions with their relationships, and people in their 30s and 40s make horrible relationship decisions. Age just doesn't have so much to do with it.

Well thank the lord that you're around to tell us what we want out of relationships. Just today I was sitting here going, 'I really need to find an asshole for my next boyfriend.' Then you came along and now I am saved from the trauma! I'm so glad you're here to help out the helpless weak women of the world.

That's cool.
centaur, cheerfulgreek and christiangirl you ladies have your own opinions and you're entitled to them. Of course, I don't think all women like bad boys, but I do believe a lot of them do. I just agree with the OP that's all.
Based on christiangirl's posts she doesn't seem to like bad boys and I know cheerfulgreek isn't into bad boys, so again I'm not saying all women.

Lol, I think the baddest boy I'd ever consider dating would be Mr. "Order me a winky dinky dog."  (yes, I'm still laughing about that PB)
I see your point, though. A lot of girls at my school are like that, but that many more are not. On the contrary, I like a man who can respectfully hold his own. I HATE PUSHOVERS. Lol, if I ever told my husband to leave the comfort of his own bedroom that he pays half the mortgage for and go sleep on the couch and he ACTUALLY DID IT, I'd completely lose respect for him. My ex was such a yes-man, that we ended up fighting about it. I found myself screaming, "FIGHT WITH ME! TELL ME NO! SAY I'M WRONG! SOMETHING!!!" When I finally pissed him off and he argued back, it was the sexiest I'd ever seen him (and that's saying alot, old boy was uglier than Shrek). I have a very forceful personality and am the type who steps over the line every so often. I want a man who will check me on it, because I'd check him in a heartbeat if he crossed the line with me. So no, I don't want an idiot who treats me badly. But if treating me like a queen means being a doormat, then I'll walk straight over him and onto the next guy.

Yeah I was under the impression that PB had the same notion as the OP, that most (NOT ALL) women arent looking for the 'nice' guy, they just skip right over them and head for the bad ass out of the group. So what does that tell the nice, southern gentleman fella, 'hey I need to change my antics and start treating women like dirt', now instead of one dick, you have 3 or 4 more. It just doesnt make any sense, and the saddest thing is that this post is originally about 5 years old, and the same situation applies. I mean I can understand the maturity level thing, but heck, women are supposed to be ahead of men in the maturity level by like 4 or 5 years, so why are they acting like they just got out of high school? People are claiming that these women just graduated HS, or that they are freshmen, sophomores, or even juniors in college, but when you think about it, they should be having the mentality of a mid to late 20 year old by about that time. Now I also I agree with the saying that 'College is a time to have fun' but is fun something constituted by having sex with 5, 10, 15+ partners in a year? (Wow that just went against all 'guy' principles) Or can you have as much fun alternate ways, I mean I can party all weekend long and remain loyal to my girl friend with out her being there. I can also have fun by participating in other events, I mean even though philanthropies and community service sometimes involve work, it is also a good time to goof off and have fun.
I guess all we are saying is that we are brought up to believe that females are supposed to be more advanced maturity wise, when realistically alot (Again NOT ALL) of them still dont know whats going on. It was evident five years ago, it is evident today, and we just want to know why?
And yes ladies, we know there are a several of the more classy and sophisticated types out there, but for some reason we just have a hard time finding you, and apparently you finding us.

On a side note, I may have just realized what a can of worms I just opened, and am probably going to get raked over the coals for this one.
All I can do now is sit and take it........proceed with the thrashing ladies, just be easy on a young lad!

What about nice girls like me? It's not always the girls wanting bad boys. I've always wanted a gentleman. It seems like most guys want fast women. (not you PB) but most men do. What about that? Can you explain that to me?

Like I said we know there are a few of you out there (and I mean few), but it seems like you are non-existent, or already taken. Again, we (or at least I) am not referring to EVERY woman on the face of the earth, just stating that past experiences have lead us to the conclusion that other types of women out number the 'good' ones.

Well, just so you know there are more good women out there than there are bad. There are so many men that cheat on their spouses and girlfriends that it totally makes it hard to trust men.
