this is paralleled perfectly in a myth I (and many of my friends) believed when younger, that is that women like jerks and not nice guys. Same ideas, men who are nice guys aren't assertive, powerful etc. It’s not that women like jerky behavior, they are just attracted to the other traits that happen to come with jerks.

Great article.
