Do They Really Prefer Bad Boys?

You said something in another thread that at first I agreed with, then I decided to think in terms of OUTSIDE of the United States and thought about women not just in THIS environment but on a GLOBAL level.



You...in effect....said that women tend to like bad boys and prefer bad dudes over intellectuals.
And many of us who grew up in the urban environments of the United State could certainly bear witness to that.

However what about the Asian and Indian women?

When you look at China, Japan, the Koreas, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and the other nations of East and South Asian you have BILLIONS of people, which means a LOT of sex is happening between the males and females...lol.

Although criminal and violent men exist in all racial and ethnic groups, I think most of us can agree that when you think about thug life or a gangsta.....Chinese and Indian men aren't the first ones that come to mind, lol.

Most of them are some of the most plain, square, wimpy, push-your-glasses-up nerdish men you'll ever run into.....yet they're attracting women and making babies.

If "women" prefer thugs and bad boys....why aren't THOSE women choosing them?

Bad Boy doesn't necessarily mean thug or gangsta.

High testosterone man is probably a better description of what I'm referring to as a bad boy.

In those other cultures, the people seem to be laid back & docile in general. Fewer bad boys &/or displays of high testosterone.

While the men may not be outdoorsmen or athletes of gym rats or whatever, they could still be high testosterone in other ways.

We don't really see or know how Asian or Indian or Middle Eastern men get down with their women behind closed doors. Especially when everybody wrapped up like mummies.🤣

Otherwise, bad boys or high testosterone men are not the majority anywhere.

Even if a woman is married to a good man, those who cheat seem to do so with a higher testosterone man.😎

I can agree with this.
High testosterone is much more likely to be the reason so many rebellious and violent men are attractive to some women.
It's a sign OF having high testosterone and being aggressive.



In those other cultures, the people seem to be laid back & docile in general. Fewer bad boys &/or displays of high testosterone.


If this is the case....then it's not about "women" as much as it's about the CULTURE they were brought up in and how they were raised.
They were basically trained or conditioned on what type of man to find attractive.

Well, couldn't the same thing apply to women in America?
Could it be that women HERE are also being trained or conditioned on what type of man to like and find attractive?

I agree that the bad boys aren't the majority anywhere, but there are some ethnicities or communities where the men in general seem to have a higher testosterone rate than others.

Unlike most Black American men, Italian men seem to pride themselves on being "high testosterone" men.



Even if a woman is married to a good man, those who cheat seem to do so with a higher testosterone man.😎


True.
And don't ask me how I know....lol.

Culture & environment definitely play a huge role in attraction between both men & women.

Regardless of culture/ethnicity/environment, I believe most women would prefer a high testosterone man.

Of course, women will settle for a different type of man especially depending on her mentality.

A feminist-lite woman may not want a high testosterone man. Too much competition in the pants-wearing department.🤣

Overall, culture & environment & mutual attraction put men & women together as it has since the beginning of time.😎

I think it plays a BIGGER role with women.
Meaning, I think they're more easily influenced by culture and their environment.

Except for the size of butts....lol...men all over the world regardless or race or culture tend to find the same things attractive about women.

You don't hear about ONE group of men preferring "bad bitches" while another group prefers "good girls".

Nor do you hear Asian or White men explicitly say "I'm not into Black girls or Latina girls".
Even if they are racist....they'll still take a FEMALE of another race for sexual purposes.

Nearly all heterosexual men tend to like the same things.

Can the same be said for women?




Regardless of culture/ethnicity/environment, I believe most women would prefer a high testosterone man.


True.
But how they would like for that high testosterone to be EXPRESSED tends to differ from one culture to the next.

Further,
It's scientifically proven that Black men have the HIGHEST testosterone of any other racial or ethnic group of men.
Do you think most women around the planet consciously prefer Black men?



Of course, women will settle for a different type of man especially depending on her mentality.


There are millions of Chinese and Japanese women who WILL NOT settle for a Black man regardless of her circumstances.
And it has nothing to do with his testosterone level, money, or confidence....it's because he is BLACK.

This is a major "problem" around the planet.

I put "problem" in quotes because for most Black men it doesn't seem to be a problem at all.
Most don't seem to care how many women around the planet actually see them, especially compared to White men.


Overall, culture & environment & mutual attraction put men & women together as it has since the beginning of time.


Historically speaking, rape and violence have also put men and women together and even produced offspring.
That seems to be the case in much of the worlds history.

When it comes to conquered people and those living under the rule of domination, it's hard for us to really know WHAT the women of that culture really like because they are being controlled and programmed.
