You sound like a guy who said hello to a woman once and didn't get a blowjob in return, so now you're forever bitter...

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know where you thought I said there was something wrong with that?

But I don't

wait I kind of just brainfarted past the 'abusive' part

MY BAD EVERYBODY

Re: SA

[(Anonymous)]

oh okay :)

[(Anonymous)]

There are a lot of guys out there who think that if they show the bare minimum of decent behavior to a woman and she doesn't fall in love instantly, she must like "assholes" and "jerks" or even want to be abused.

I think that's what that poster was referring to.

[(Anonymous)]

DA No, they sound like they equate "taught" with superficial brainwashing attempts and are trying to insist it's natural/genuine or something.

[(Anonymous)]

Closer to that. I'm generally uncomfortable with arguments that assign a preference or view or whatever entirely to social conditioning, because I think it's kind of insulting

buttttttt also I kind of just mentally skipped over the "abusive" qualifier and was focusing more on the "brooding and sexy" part, and I probably wouldn't have made the post that way if I hadn't done that

[(Anonymous)]

nayrt

Er, as a woman, sorry but it's kind of an inescapable fact that women find those kind of men sexy. It's not a "lol women are idiots," or "women will always inherently prefer abusive men and that's good," it's just a descriptive fact of how things of how things happen to be at this moment in time. And saying lots of women don't happen to find abusive broody men sexy is like saying lots of men don't find big breasts sexy.

That doesn't negate the idea that they find this sexy because they've been socialized to do so, btw.

[(Anonymous)]

Some women, but not all. I'm a woman and I've never found it sexy. Even a little bit of jerk behavior is a huge turnoff and pisses me off.

[(Anonymous)]

OP of this subthread and I don't think that all women find that sexy, and I'm really sorry if I implied that. I didn't mean to.

[(Anonymous)]

Ditto to this. Always been attracted to sensitive nice guys. Run at the very first sign of jerkishness.

[(Anonymous)]

Do you always prefer the same exact things in fiction and real life?

[meishuu]

Me too, especially in real life. In fiction I can tolerate for example a misunderstanding an a bit of snark between the couple, but at the first sign of the man being a jerk I just stop reading/turn off the tv.

[arcadiaego]

In this case,my attitude to Rochester can vary a lot. Sometimes when I've read it I want to punch him, other times I'm sympathetic. In adaptations it's a very fine line between portraying him as a good man who has made bad decisions and a total twat.

[(Anonymous)]

As the commenter who said at the top "women have been taught to", yeah, this. Not that it always sticks, and not that it always manifests irl.

[(Anonymous)]

Really, looking through this very community reveals TONS of support for this fact. Snape, Hannibal, every anime villain...

[(Anonymous)]

lol

[(Anonymous)]

Where are you seeing all the Snape loving secrets? Not on FS...

[diet_poison]

there's a portion of the fandom that has a big ladyboner for Snape (though not all of it by any means), but I don't think he's as popular on F!S.

[ketita]

But plenty of anime villains aren't the "dark broody abusive" type. There are TONS of anime-villain tropes. You can use it in a "women like bad boys" kind of way, maybe, but I don't think it holds up to specifically the dark and brooding stereotype.

[arcadiaego]

I don't think anyone actually defends Hannibal's actions though, do they??

[meishuu]

I'm not a guy and I second OP statement, so fuck you.
