You know... "jerks"... the guys who act like pricks and get lots of women.
It's always frustrating to see a guy who I think is a jerk go with a girl I like. I'm sure that's the same for most of us. Though I have noticed that a lot of the women who do go for guys who in particular insult them in the company of others have low self-confidence to begin with. As a sort of cause and effect pattern it sort of makes sense to me: someone has low self-confidence, and finds someone else who can confirm their own presumptions.
Some people seem to think that all women fall for jerks. They mustn't like their parents that much.

Regarding the last sentence, for me its been the opposite. Most of the advice that GUYS have given turns out NOT to work for me at all. However, some NT women have actually given me some very constructive and useful advice. Lesbians in fact seem to really be the most knowledgeable about how to woo women. Some men I know really know how to get along well with women. One of them, my friend Jason, often gives people of both sexes the impression that he's gay even though in fact he's NOT. Women seem to LOVE guys like that-straight guys who give the impression that they're gay or might be gay.
Furthermore, some straight men try get themselves involved or interested in activities/hobbies that predominately appeal more to women; and by golly it really seems to work. The more you have in common with women the more women will respect you and the better you'll get along with them in relationships.
I know a lot of women who are put off by men appearing gay. For some, it might work but I suspect that is combined with a strong personality and maybe a broadly-appealing sense of humour. But the last point you have is quite agreeable. If I felt like I could dance, I would join a dancing club or something. But I can't, and sadly most if not all of my interests are male-dominated.
