Abstract
Popular media strongly reflects the notion that "nice guys finish last" when it comes to romantic relationships, while scholarly articles hold conflicting viewpoints on the topic. A handful of studies offer evidence that women prefer dating men with a nice-guy personality. However, other research suggests that men classified as bad boys have more frequent sexual relationships than their nice-guy counterparts. This study sought to discover the reason for this conflict and establish an empirically driven explanation of it.
