I think it’s the whole ‘bad boy who’s so good but destined to break your heart’ fantasy. Which doesn’t sound like much of a fantasy when you put the broken heart part in the picture, but it is. It so is.

About This Quote

The bad boy fantasy is a fantasy that all women seem to fall for. The fantasy is that of a bad boy who is, in fact, a good boy. Women have been brainwashed by the media to believe that all men who allow their hair to grow long, wear tattoos and have numerous piercings are bad boys. In reality, most of them are sweet and kind people who would never hurt a fly.

The only difference between the good boys and the bad boys is that the good boys have not had a chance to break any hearts or disappoint anyone. Women have been brainwashed into thinking that all sorts of men are bad boys simply because they have not met a good one yet.
