THE SECRET TO GETTING LAID -- VOLUME, VOLUME, VOLUME

Speaking of lots of testosterone and sex, a new study has discovered the reason why so-called “bad boys” have more sexual partners than nice guys. It has nothing to do with their bad attitudes after all, but is simply because bad boys try to hit on many more women than regular dudes and so the law of averages means they will meet more willing partners (take a hint, dorks!). The researchers concluded that men who possess what psychologists call the “dark triad” of personality traits -- the tendency to lie and manipulate others, selfish narcissism and impulsive behaviour -- have a predatory, scatter gun approach to conquests which helps them to meet more women. The scientists also speculated that we’re surrounded by so many assholes (I’m paraphrasing here) because these negative personality traits have survived through evolution due to their link to higher mating success.
