It’s a sad truth but women find a man’s capacity or potential for violence sexually attractive.
It is not a coincidence that almost every single trait women find attractive is convenient for helping a guy seem like he could harm or dominate other people physically or socially.
Women love power not men.

Oh right, so that's why so many of the men most famous for being sex symbols are lightly built and with kind spirits?
May I put forward an alternative hypothesis? You, depressedshortteen, feel intimidated by violent - or even just plain imposing - men, and because you're afraid of them, think that they will get the women you desire. But rather than admit that you're scared of them and frankly, resorting to a very colour-by-numbers way of thinking about human relationships, you'd rather just assume that the women (who you find easier to blame. Just because everything's womens' fault somehow, right?) want the men you are so resentful of.
Nearer the mark, sweetie?
You know, you could actually ask some women instead of making it all up. Oh, I forgot, you don't know any women, or you would be too frightened to talk to them if you really knew any.
Yes, SOME women are attracted to violent men. That is why serial killers and family killers all have groupies. Even so, many of these women think their love will "save" him. These women are far from the majority though. As for me, learning that Idris Elba is a supporter of the #metoo movement added a few chili peppers to his hotness rating for me.
I'd love an answer to this....
Why in the name of all that is good and holy do these dorks always insist that women & girls LOVE being raped and abused when they obviously don't? You hear it from this guy, you hear it from Beale The Eel and you hear it from a bunch of others.
Is it wishful thinking or do these guys come from Bizarroworld?
@SpukiKitty :
My pet theory on that is that it's a nugget of that "I hope you're enjoying this thing we're doing together too" sentiment that most people have. While most of us hope that when we, say, have a conversation with someone else they're enjoying the conversation too (because that would mean we wouldn't have to feel guilty about imposing on them), these guys enjoy the idea of dominating women but feel guilty about it so want to salve their guilt by kidding themselves that the women like being treated that way.
That's what I think, anyway.
@SpukiKitty :
I also think they know just enough about romance novels, soap operas, and other such entertainment traditionally aimed at women to know that a lot of it involves women being "ravished" or in other situations of dubious or flat-out non-existent consent.
So they assume that because they enjoy fantasizing about these things, they must actually want them in real life.
"Incels" are expert cherry-pickers, MBW.
It's even more hilarious because they think that serial killer groupies are viewed as nothing more than women who have a crush on some heartthrob as opposed to being viewed with utter contempt. Hell, the tone of anything that covers women like that is invariably, "Check out these freaks!"
It's essentially a glorified version of that favorite of whiny "friend zoned nice guys" everywhere, "Why do girls only date jerks?"
To which I respond, "Because they're probably jerks too."
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
