I'm very happily married for 15 years to a mature Christian woman that is not impressed with idiotic "bad boy" behavior. I have no interest in dating.
Then what do you know of bad boys and women dating them?
It seems to me that the type girl that is dating the "bad boy" is the female version of that while the more educated, focused and ambitious women are dating educated, focused and ambitious men. You know the ol' like with like thing.

I've seen many well educated and professional women with "bad boy" boyfriends that use and abuse them. I've never understood this- I guess that is what they call co-dependency. I guess it's an addiction to a person, or certain kind of person that is bad for you, like drugs, drinking, etc.

My experience is just the opposite. The young educated professional women I know are generally a few years out of college around 25 years old and date educated professional men. Just seeing a woman with her boyfriend I have no idea the situation. I don't know what goes on in their personal life unless they are my friends. I did work with one woman, a divorced mother working on her masters, who was hooked up with a player (he was educated and employed) but she finally wised up and moved on.
People fall in love, or think they are, with the wrong person or some people just need someone. Many have dated a person and later thought what in the world was I thinking. This is true in both men and women. I don't see where this particular behavior can be blamed for the lack of ambition and unemployment in our young men.

It just seems to me from watching a lot of these true crime shows that beautiful young women that have a lot going for them are attracted to trouble makers We do all make some bad choices- my first wife was a nut, but I didn't want to see the truth. Fortunately, God gave me another chance, and I now have a wonderful wife.

Maybe don't take examples from a TV shows that showcases the few extreme cases and apply it to majority of the real world. Better yet just don't base reality on television at all.
In response to the "What would I do if I were poor and did not have my bike and my 'Vette" asked in Post #47 is pretty simple. I would not be retired. I would be doing something to make some money so I could avoid the "poor" part. The something is up for grabs.
I might even become a paid politician so I could get up on a podium in front of a couple of thousand worshipful supporters and tell them how wonderful I am to the screams of adulation. I could also try selling used buildings or broke down cars but that does not feel as good or pay as well. At the very lowest I would try saving souls if they paid me first.
The problem is people change!!! they are great men and do all the right things until 6 mo. into the marriage- come ON people! Many women in high stress jobs making plenty of $$ sometimes wants the opposite at home-- not a peer- from the office talking shop- or they are high end, but their dad was the great plumber everybody loved- so she wants what dad was-
Then there are the drugs, the other women, men and alcohol- things just change! stop blaming
