I see this sentiment all the time on this sub.

''If women are so good at sniffing our misogynists/ bad guys then why do so many women date abusive asshole guys...''

While I do agree that, ''women's intuition'' is a BS concept and isn't magic. What ''women's intuition'' is, is just the immediate rejection of explicitly misogynistic or hostile guys who otherwise have no redeeming qualities or attractive traits.

In men which are toxic or abusive but are attractive (these guys also tend to be good at hiding or masking it), the group of women that are either blind or explicitly attracted to this group of men, is not the same as the group of women that are particularly wary of this kind of toxic behaviour.

I said it a million times and il'll say it again. Most relationships are assortive. Toxic people date toxic people. The women who are attracted to ''bad boys'' or toxic guys are toxic themselves. People high in the Dark Triad mate assortatively: they pick one another (Smith et al., 2014; Webster et al., 2014; Birkas et al., 2018; Burtăverde, 2021; Kay, 2021). Low income/ low class people mate within themselves. Women who are particularly attracted to DT men are much more likley to have Emophilia; trait associated with general insecurity and desire to eschew boundaries and rush fast into relationships and ignore red flags. Even in most volent relationships, both the man and the woman are volent towards each other at equal rates (excluding self defence).
