Why Women Prefer Assholes
TheYeti on why women prefer assholes: “When confronted with the choice of an asshole or a pansy, they will always go to the asshole because at least they have a shot at tempering his rough edges. It is impossible to install a spine in a pansy.”
I've been standing up for myself lately, or at least trying to (and lately meaning the past 10 months or so), and that, evidently, has been interpreted as being an asshole. Or, in the immortal words of a friend, "an intolerable jerk". On the outside it looks like I'm grouchy or grumpy, but guess what? I'M LIKE THAT ALL THE TIME ON THE INSIDE! Sorry, that was loud, but yelling can be theraputic sometims. But being an asshole (or the term I prefer, Selfish Pig) has meant being more myself and less someone that I'm not. Being an asshole has not meant that women now prefer me, but being arrogant is definitely easier than being nice.
TheYeti wins the pie for getting the answer absolutely correct, and is the deserving winner of pies. Mmm, pie.
Time passes.
TheYeti has updated his entry significantly: “As women are constantly reminded to avoid conflict, it is only natural that they are impressed/attracted/drawn to men who seemingly break all the rules and do what they could never do.”
