But guys, I have one example that speaks against all that. This specimen right here:


Because trust me, 10 out of 10 ladies would be quick to catapult the panties at this one. And let's really look at who he is. In season one of "The Game" aka the best show on television, Derwin Davis was established as a NICE, SWEET, NAIVE, INNOCENT, BOTTOM-OF-THE-TOTEM POLE ROOKIE AND CHURCH BOY. Totally in love with his girl, totally unaware when he was being used and disrespected, just bright-eyed, hard-working and happy to be playing football. And out of Malik, Jason and whoever else, Derwin "Ding Dong" Davis was clearly the favorite. You loved his big, brown eyes (that seemed to be so trustworthy). Loved his dedication and even his cheesiness, cuz let's face it, Derwin was very corny.
Of course, there were times his character started to feel himself a little bit as time went on. But it caught you off guard, like, "Whoa, look at Derwin gettin all saucy! Whaaaat?!" Almost made you a lil proud to see him stand up for himself, too. And because he was such a nice guy, the Drew Sidora thing totally BROKE our hearts. We believed in him, wanted him to be different. I never forgave him for that, honestly. But I still have to admit, he wasn't intending to hurt anyone. Even his cheating had an air of innocence, like he didn't know he was sliding down a slippery slope. (If I see Drew Sidora, I swear ima purrnch her in the face!)
But I just say all that to say, that yes, guys....we all want Derwin. And he is "the good guy." So perhaps with the emergence of a character like him, you might see a shift in the kinds of guys we celebrate as desirable. Or even the kind of guy we look at twice. (But I must say, if your good guy doesn't look like this one, then that may be part of the reason you aren't catching bees with your honey.)
AND OH - LADIES! HE REALLY IS THAT WAY IN REAL LIFE. NICE GUY, GOOD ENERGY,REAL GOOFY GUY, REAL GENUINE.
