I think the context got lost somewhere. It was about what men want from

Because you find them sexy. Remember, you want sex, not procreation. Men are
not particularly picky, so their preference varies with the fashion.

Sure, if they have redeeming qualities. Weak may be rich, poor may be
strong. Women ideally want rich and strong, but there are so many of those
to go around.
My point is, "nice" is meaningless, a non-factor. We are all nice, and we
are all not nice. Even Hitler was "nice" enough to hitch up with Eva Braun,
if you believe being nice earns points (did that cost me Godwin points?). In
fact, it doesn't, nor does it cost points. Those who claim nice guys finish
last confuse being nice with having the aforementioned "inferior"
(evolutionarily handicapping) qualities that drive women away.
A peacock that flaunts itself for the peahen is not being obnoxious, and
likewise, a peacock that fails to do that, for whatever reason, is not being
nice or considerate. A man who thinks that immitating the weaker of the
peacocks is a virtue is thus delusional.

Name three romantic leading men over 200 lbs. I can't name one.

No, "nice" is a factor, because "nice" guys don't communicate. "Nice"
guys lie. "Nice" guys act interested when they're bored. "Nice" guys
think they can get away with it and can never figure out why their
deceitful human encounters go sideways.

It sounds like that your opinion is that there are only "nice men" and
"douchebags". The "nice men" are just liars, and the "douchebags" are,
well, douchebags.

My opinion is that "nice men" aren't really that nice at all. Your
typical "nice guy" is a selfish, manipulative (at least, he tries to be)
person. I can't stand to be around him. I can't stand when he interrupts
the conversation of normal, mentally-healthy people with his bullshit.
His being socially awkward or "unlucky" with women doesn't make him any
less a troll.
Some of these trolls find a home in the bullshit avalanche of particular
bar/club scenes[1]. This is the type of person I think of as a
"douchebag." Whatever girl he can barter sex from in exchange for his
blowing smoke up her ass is as much a troll as he is and finds the
attention/reinforcement well worth whatever heartache he may give her. I
think you'll find most douchebag guys were dorky kids.

It sounds to me like your definition of "nice guy" is a bit different
than what most other people think (including the guy who wrote that text
I linked to in my original post).

No, I'm talking about the exact same guy. What he doesn't understand is
that he gets no "physical intimacy" because he is *incapable* of
"emotional intimacy." He has his head so far up his ass that he doesn't
see why he can't get close to a woman by going through the right moves
(opening doors, cooking dinner, buying gifts) instead of having honest
The woman somehow eluded him despite his master-planned strategy, so now
she deserves misery. Yeah, nice guy.

I'm sorry to say this, but you are being outright delusional. I can't
understand how you are seeing this in what that guy wrote.

Geeks are permanently and chronically single, so they don't count.
