Hey, this is Leo, for actualized.org.

And in this video, I want to talk about why women

fall for assholes or what? This is a fun topic. I like thinking about this stuff. I like thinking about any kind of female attraction or dating type of topics. It's just fascinating to me. I want to cover this because I have some ideas about it because I've talked to so many women.

I've tried to hit on so many women, literally thousands of women, that I think I have a little bit of insight into this topic.

I'm sure some women have a different perspective on this, but we'll see where it goes.

So basically here's my thinking on this but we'll see where it goes. So basically here's my thinking on this

idea. Women do fall for assholes. I've encountered this. I've actually

encountered it through my coaching too. I coach people professionally, right? And I find this

where a woman will fall for a guy who she knows is not the right guy for her. Who she knows is the bad guy,

who she knows she should not be in a relationship with,

but then she simply can't break that off.

Cannot break it off.

And it's baffling to me. Not not only that but it's kind of scary

Right it's kind of scary that a guy can have such a hold over a woman and I just experienced as in various relationships that I've been in that this kind of effect happens and just from all different stuff that I've studied and all the people that I've talked to and clients that I've coached.

So here's my theory about how this works.

So it's actually pretty simple. So here's my theory about how this works. It's actually pretty simple. So here's what happens.

A woman in a man, what is she attracted to? She's attracted to confidence. She's attracted

to assertiveness. She's attracted to status, and she's attracted to

edginess, and she's attracted to a certain sense of indifference in the man.

Now a lot of times a woman won't want to admit this. She won't

admit it to herself. She won't admit it to other people. She'll challenge me on it,

right? But the fact is that this is universally what women like. I mean I didn't want to believe this.
