I had some sex when I was nice guy. I had much, much more sex when I was indifferent to women. I never treated women badly, just indifferently. When I was attentive and sweet, most women had no interest. Once I turned them down and was in control they'd practically beg for sex.

Now I'm dating the most wonderful woman in the world so I don't have to play the game. I can be a nice guy and get sex all the time with a woman I love.

first of all... jerks may get laid more than nice guys if you're looking at a single jerk and a single nice guy compared to eachother.... but more nice guys have girlfriends than jerks, and guys with girlfriends tend to get action quite frequently.... a lot more often than a single jerk. granted, its always with the same girl (provided your a nice guy, and not a jerk who cheats on his girlfriend), but its still very often.

now, lets consider the "hot girls like jerks" statement we started with... we'll assume this is true. "nice guys" (who are actually just smarter, less cocky jerks at heart) can take advantage of this situation like so:

1) hot girl sleeps with jerk, because hot girl is too damn stupid to realize he is a jerk... as most hot girls are.
2) said hot girl gets heart broken upon realizing said jerk is a jerk, and not Mr. right.
3) Mr. Nice (you) finds said hot girl in peices, and proceeds to help her get through hard times
4) said hot girl becomes dependant on said Mr. Nice (still you), at which point the two decide on a girlfriend/boyfriend arrangement.
5) Now, said Mr. Nice gets action from said hot girl whenever the hell he wants, because said hot girl is under the impression that said mr. nice is also mr. perfect, and she worships him

this model works perfectly... almost. first of all there's the issue of getting "used equipment." if this doesn't bother you then you're good to go... but it does bother some people. also... when you get sick of the hot girl and are ready to move onto the next, she's not so easy to get rid of. she is dependant on you... she needs you in order to be happy... You're only chance of survival is to pry her away and run like hell. And then you've got the issue of being a nice guy and feeling bad for hanging the hot girl out to dry.

or you could just find somebody that you love who loves you also, then be happy with spending the rest of your life with a slightly less-hot, but still enjoyable partner. hot girls don't age well anyways (or so i hear).


It's all about intentions...if these are your intentions then you aren't so mr nice are you...
Nice guy would be helping her out without the intention of anything else...would you help this girl out if she wasn't hot or if you knew you would remain just friends with her?

no, hot girls don't like nice guys beacuse they think that they are boring.

Agreed, but he still doesn't get any :D

When I was in school, I was considered a nice guy, and had no problem.

But there are guys who want to get laid by the girls who like jerks. Why, I don't know, but it might explain why some people agreed with your poll question.

You have to realize what type of board this is.

These people are used to deals where there are PM, MIR, and IR offers, complete with warranty.

It's a whole new world with women. They don't come with MIR or IR, no warranty, no instruction manual. PMS ain't all that great -- yes, the guy suffers too -- and if something goes wrong, you can't take her back.

Some techies view everything -- usually women, cars, bikes, etc -- as a different sort of computer-equipment-paradigm, or CEP. If you're just a CEP to someone else, you'll soon figure it out. Hence the "hand-me-down" mentality, or HMD. If you don't like it -- and I wouldn't either -- then just kind of smile and nod while saying "misogynistic bastard" and everything will feel better for you.

Maybe nice guys don't get laid because they are all like you.

We have a winner!!!

:D

Yea, talk about a double standard. A guy doesn't mind sleeping with a dozen women, but you get a woman who has slept with a dozen guys, and suddenly you talk about her like she is "used".

Sheesh, stupid men...

Well, first off, I wasn't talking about you. I don't know if you bitch about nice guys not getting laid. I was talking about people who actually DO bitch. Since you seem to realize that you get hit on, I'm guessing that you don't bitch. Hence, you're cool (..you're cool, you're cool, fvck you, you're cool....)

Secondly, I know what you mean! I macked on you for like an hour and you didn't seem to notice.

:):rolls for initiative::)

It's even worse when I get hit on by a guy and don't notice... that was rather embarrassing.

Were you flattered when you realized it? I think it's such a compliment when a girl hits on me. =)

I was very flattered, but slightly unnerved... but, hey, it was on Broadway (here in Seattle). I shouldn't have been all that surprised.

I hold the same standard for both. A guy who brags to me about the girl he had sex with last night doesn't command much respect in my eyes, neither does a girl.
