Personally, I am not a big fan of dominating males. Some alpha males may be interesting to date in the short term but they often make for poor long-term relationships.
Women today have equal rights, freedoms, and almost equal opportunities, so many look for good male partners rather than alpha males. As is often the case with changing societal norms, this is also reflected in popular media such as movies and television shows.

“Sometimes I have seen the most attractive women go for the guys that treat them like dirt.”

Yes it is true that some women prefer bad boys. Bad boys are fun to date but they are hopeless for anything long term.
The allure of the bad boy is that each woman thinks she is ‘the one’ to cure him of his badness, but that never really happens. But then, that only makes the bad boy even more unattainable which makes him even more attractive.
Like James Bond – the ultimate bad boy.

Very true. Sometimes it can be a bit nerve wracking when on a first date, but I find that with careful planning there is less need to be nervous. This will also be another fun hub topic. Thanks HappyHer!
