“‘Too nice, too easily pushed off,’ one old torch singer said, ‘and too damn philosophical about it afterward. He didn’t have that, uh, slight menace that gives a girl a thrill.'”
That was a former acquaintance talking about a young Ronald Reagan.
In other words, about somebody who had looks, charm, and drive.
And yet… something was missing. A bit of menace. A bit of a sexual threat.
It’s an honest assessment of what women find attractive in a man, and what unattractive.
Keep this in mind the next time you talk to a girl, and she gives you those deer eyes, as if to say, “I just want a nice guy.”
