There is just something about a bad girl that men can’t seem to resist. We know they are bad for us, but that sure doesn’t stop us from feeling the way that we do, especially when it comes to the celebs who we crush on. Look no further than the overwhelming attention paid to stars like Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie, and Lindsay Lohan during the heights of their popularity. Don’t forget: It wasn’t that long ago when Jolie’s celebrity news was focused on her carrying a vile of blood around her tattoo-laced body and lip locking with her brother on national television!
Why Celeb Bad Girls
Take a trip a little further down memory lane, and you may recall a time when bad girl Britney Spears dressed up as a schoolgirl and crushed the competition (like good girls Mandy Moore and Jessica Simpson). When it comes down to it, the allure of a bad girl makes a lot of sense. Here are a few reasons why men can’t resist these types of women:

1. The promise of sexuality: When men see a bad girl, the look and the attitude conjures images of a woman who is free with her sexuality. Women such as Fox ooze sexuality, making us believe that a night with her will be different from any experiences we’ve ever had. This is enough to make any man weak at the knees when contemplating the sexual revolution that could enter his life.
2. The excitement a bad girl brings to the table:Â Life can boring sometimes. Many of us fall into the same day-to-day routines, week after week, month after month. But not with a bad girl. With a bad girl like celeb Lohan, we know we will be in for one heck of a ride, full of exotic trips, random adventures, and potential trouble. This trouble may not be good for relationships and love, but it sure is exciting.
3. The promise of a chase: Men will always want what they can’t have. When men chase after bad girls, they know they may be setting themselves up for mistreatment, frustration, and neglect, but the allure of that chase is enough to outweigh the negatives. Deep down, we all want to be the ones to conquer the Jennifer Lopez’s of the world and get them to settle down.

4. The look:Â Pull up pictures of some of the most notorious bad girl, Â and you will find one common thread: All of them look and dress incredibly sexy. Men are extremely visual creatures. We become excited by the over-sexualized visuals a bad girl presents. When choosing between the pretty girl in the turtleneck and the bad girl who shows off what she has, our primal sides want the bad girl that stimulates us visually.
5. The attitude:Â The way a female carries herself can work wonders for her appeal. An average looking woman can become extremely attractive by walking, talking, and acting as if she has it going on. Bad girls such as Jolie give off a vibe of living in their own world, and everyone else is just in their orbit. This attitude of complete confidence can be liberating to men who feel constrained by society. There is something very sexy about a woman that marches to the beat of her own drum.
