On Naughty Americans LIVE, I’ve heard guys say so many times, “Nice guys finish last” “Girl’s like jerks,” and “just act like a d-bag. Girls like that.”

There is a misconception that girls like jerks. It’s not that girls like the jerk/ass-hole aspect of jerks, they just like all the other characteristics that go along with being a jerk, and they think they can change the jerk part (or they don’t notice the real jerk within right off.)

However, saying “nice guys finish last” isn’t generally said by “nice,” confident, and assertive men. That statement in itself is a very passive and pussy thing to say.

While said “Nice guys” may see a jerk, women see this:

Positive Characteristics of a Jerk:

*Assertive: they go after what they want in life.
*Not enough time to cater/ suck-up to everyone else. They have important things going on in their lives; more important than getting pussy.
*They do what they want to do & what’s best for them. *They may provide options and ask for opinions, but all options are something they’d like to do.
*Don’t waste time. They have a plan, and they execute it.

All of these qualities tend to make a man successful in his life, and therefore attractive to women. The perfect balance of these characteristics that will both get AND keep women is: Going out of your way to make yourself successful, not going out of your way to make others miserable.

It takes a confident man to act this way whether he is a jerk or not. Girls don’t like the games that jerks play, or rude behaviors towards others.
While women may overlook rude or jerk behavior for a while once attracted, what will not attract them is acting like a pussy.
By pussy, I mean: being passive and letting the world happen to you as opposed to making things happen for yourself. By pussy I mean: blaming others for taking the life/women you want instead of going after what you want until you get it. Lastly, a major indicator that you are acting like a pussy is if you don’t stand up for yourself.

Yes, a jerk would stand up for himself, so would a confident “nice” man, but not a “pussy.”

In summary: Yes, women may like certain things about jerks. Women appreciate it more when you are not a jerk, but are a confident, assertive “nice” man. “Nice guys” only finish last if by “nice guy” you mean pussy.
