Oh, this is soooo perfect, Meg. Thank you so much for sharing this. I recently joined a dating site and, on top of already hating that statement "nice guys finish last", now I despise it. It's a total turn-off. I'd love to send this to every one of them lol.
Wait...I'm confused. So is this quote saying that it is bad to be a nice guy? Does being nice makes a man unattractive? I get the whole "good man" part; of course everyone aspires to be good...but "good" is not a personality trait; it is a reflection of character. So I guess what I want to know is, is this quote criticizing the societal stigma that nice guys are less attractive, or is it saying outright that women do not find nice guys attractive?
@Robby: I think he's saying if nice is the one word a man chooses to characterize himself with (above all the others words out there) then the man has some work to do. Because it is a small and insignificant and boring word. A man can be nice and a hundred other things, so why not use one of those hundred other things as a descriptor?
