We recently explored whether women are attracted to jerks. But is the same true for guys? A writer for How About We says women are "mean if we don't really want to settle down with one guy (but we don't feel like being 100 percent single)." Also, she adds, "We might continue the tradition of meanness if we’ve grown up with it in our own families." But is all this a turn-on for guys?


Men’s Fitness thinks it is, for the following reasons:
1) The "Hard to Get" Factor: Just as Groucho Marx said, "I don’t care to belong to any club that will have me as a member." Sadly, if a woman is not interested in a man, he might be more interested.
2) Men Are Commitment Challenged: If a woman isn't nice to a guy, it gives him an "out." Meaning he doesn't have to get married and have babies anytime soon.

3) Too Much Media: Pop culture portrays mean girls as sexy, and guys are confused.
4) "Mommy" Issues: If his mom was like Mommie Dearest, odds are he's looking for the same. Do you think guys prefer mean girls?

**StarzAbove** 2012/06/12 18:12:46No+20I think men prefer nice, sweet girls that they can have fun with. Who wants a mean girl that is cruel to them and to others. Mean is not attractive at all.






















life doesn't make sense
However, men who are actually looking for a serious relationship, tend to prefer nice, generous, "motherly," women.
I guess we forget what most women look like in the morning.
I don't know too many girls who look absolutely hideous in the morning.
I know I'm physically unattractive but I admit it.
That's just me. I think boys are attracted to bitches though. A boy is not defined by age, a boy can be 30 >.>
Why would a guy want to be involved with a "mean" girl when so many other people in his life are "mean" (next door neighbor, brother-in-law, some parents and some acquaintances - and his "boss)..
I wanted, and luckily found, a woman who was smart and caring. She helped me get through the deaths of my parents and a couple of other hard knocks. I helped and supported her through the deaths of her parents and her brother.
If either of us had been mean to each other in any of those instances, regardless of our two sons, we would no longer be married.
I didn't like mean girls when I was in junior and senior high school, and not while I was in college.
A friend, a lover, someone who covers my emotional storms, someone who doesn't feel threatened when I cover her emotional storms, someone who will be my side if our family is threatened, someone who truly loved me, those are the things I looked for.
The acquaintance I mentioned, the masochist? My wife and I visited them exactly one time in their home. The arrows they casually slung at each other were too painful for "us" to even be around.
I agree wholeheartedly with **STARZABOVE**.
However just meaning mean? It's like the bumper sticker says "Mean People Suck"! LOL!
I did not like it but I put up with it for many years until she went out and got a child out side of our marriage.
No, I did not like it and when I see her today I get reminded why I got rid of her.
Some women do seem to prefer jerks for boy friends and life time partners.
I cannot fathom it and frankly I do not even like to think about it.
However I do think there is the confusion as to when a girl is mean, or if she's just got a bit more attitude. I know plenty of girls who will call others out and won't fluff up their opinion and are regarded as mean because of it, but these same girls will help an old women across he street or do their little sister's hair.However few girls will look at that and instead think these girls mean for saying "yes, that dress makes you butt look big".
Genuinely mean girls are often either over looked or only dated short term. Blunt girls or girls with a bit more attitude who still have good heart are dated long term while other grumble about how "unfair" it is that such a "mean" girl is getting guy.
