Yeah - I'm the long-lost, proverbial "nice guy."

So where are all the women that are looking for nice guys?

They're hanging out with the bad baboons.

LOL!

The Phillipines and Japan.
Four of my friends married Japanese ladies, one married a Phillipina.
10-15 years later, no divorces...just the usual short bouts of disharmony you'd
have with anybody you'd share an apartment with.

BUT...I will add that all these marriages did have a religious-compatibility factor;
four of the guys were missionaries for the mainstream Churches of Christ, the fifth
was a marriage intermediated by Church of Christ "friends of friends".

I was a working associate with two of the guys for over three years.
They were both the proverbial "nice guys", not effeminant in the least, but just
moral, principled with good sense of humor.

American ladies, including most they met here in the USA at church, hardly gave them
the time of day. I also knew some of these ladies...I wouldn't be suprised if they
aren't now entering their forties and wondering why they never got married...

You make some very good points here. I have a theory and I've seen it confirmed again and again.

Women like bad guys. The badder the better. But, this simple fact is complicated by a very crucial caveat -- They like bad guys they can control.

But, there's a problem here. The type-A, bloodthirsty killer type with the seven-figure net worth and annual income, the big house, the big cars, and the vacation homes in Maui and Cancun don't lend themselves to being led around by the 21st century version of Sheena of the Jungle. They've achieved what they've achieved because they're the latter-day meat-eaters of the contemporary world.

Such men take what they want. And the woman who sinks her claws into such a guy is not the center of his universe, she's just another asset in his world, the trophy wife.

So, she can't call the shots in the marriage. That leaves family court. Nothing like the long arm of the law castrating the Alpha male she couldn't hog tie herself. Even juicier if there are 2.3 kids along the way to sink the hook even deeper.

It's better than being "taken" by Bill Clinton.
