Well, yeah, but I got friends in real life who pull shit like this too.
"sinister, dark, weird and ever so slightly cuckoo?' Man, that's my ideal woman!
Well, I dunno if I'd say that's my ideal woman, but all those attributes have the potential to be sexy. I love women with
femme fatale aspects to them, and there's a reason that archetype continues to culturally endure.
I don't think it's just a goth girls thing either, I think that most straight men (in the West at least) can be divided as falling into one of two camps-- (1) men who like dark, edgy chicks and (2) those who like cute, wholesome chicks. Not that men don't ever step foot in the other camp-- there are certainly many cute, wholesome girls I've found very attractive, but for the most part I prefer category one, and I think most guys have a general preference for one or the other.
