Are women predisposed to find men with dark personalities attractive? Although conventional wisdom maintains that women should beware of men who say and do the right thing with too much ease, they often can’t help but find them utterly appealing, they seem to know just how to navigate around almost every defense mechanism a lady puts up and how to do it with style oozing charm, with a pinch of cockiness that just melts every lady they want and might not want. Scientifically, here are the list of those traits women fall for in Bad boys;
1. Self Confidence & Authority
Naturally, badboys ooze confidence and give the i care little about what you think of me which in opposite ladies find it attractive. Furthermore, its been recorded that ladies prefer to score that man in position of power and control who might be less as handsome compare to the good church boy, they want that guy who would jump the fence, ride a bike. In the Nigerian case the ladies want that “Alhaji man” with some position of power and authority.
2. Dominance
Badboys always love to take charge, and be in-control of things around them, this trait makes ladies find them appealing and handsome, and incredibly sexy. The Dominating ability makes the ladies scrambled in the head and submissive to them. This submissiveness doesn’t actually the ladies can’t stand for themselves, but society actually support that man be more domineering takes control which infuriates the Ol’ men testosterone even more.
3. Adventurous
That great deceit of hidden personality and desire to be attracted to the unknown, Badboys seem to have that charm of danger and fun about them that every lady wants a taste of sometimes at some point in their life, that exciting fling of being a dangerous bike ride with a guy holding him tight from behind, Woo-hoo this just get the ladies charged up that access to the cookies with relative easy.
4. Good Looks And Sexy Appeal
It’s actually a fun fact that badboys do naturally usually look good, dress really well and are dashingly handsome with that sexy appeal that every lady wants a piece of. That sexy appeal that makes them attractive is also just why they’re a bad boy and a full embodiment of everything that ladies are warned against, but rebel against and go for the reverse psychological warnings most especially when they are ovulating.
5. The Dark Triad Attraction
Research has revealed that more men than women possess the Dark Triad personality traits of narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellism. The hallmarks of narcissism include dominance, a sense of entitlement, and a grandiose self-view. Studies overwhelmingly show that narcissism is greater in men, even across cultures. Moreover, it is believed that narcissism may advance short-term mating in men, as it involves “a willingness and ability to compete with one’s own sex, and to repel mates shortly after intercourse.” In line with these capabilities, the authors note, narcissists are adept at beginning new relationships, and identifying multiple mating opportunities. They are also less monogamous.
