As for the article: They used James Bond as an example. Personally I don't think bad boys would save you, their queen, or their country.

As for nice guys: I've known many "nice guys" who were polite, sensitive, friendly, and do absolutely nothing to indicate that they want more than friendship. I've actually given advice to "nice guy" friends before...dude, ask the girl out. Say the words. It's often difficult to guage their intentions if they don't spell it out, make some kind of move that they would not make on their sister.

On the other hand... I have known "nice guys" who would never make it past my "friends only" catagory. Why? Because I got to know them too well. I saw them with their hair down, so to speak. I know that they really aren't nice guys, even though they seem to think they are. Being a beta male does not automatically make you a nice guy. Neither does being ugly, poor, shy, polite, honest, a social moron, or a host of other things.

True "nice guys" are sweethearts and wonderful to be around, even when they don't think they are being watched or evaluated. Even when they are not shooting for a prize.
