Beverly Engel

“Many women, even though it is against their better judgment, are attracted to bad boys. This is especially true of Nice Girls. Nice Girls like bad boys because they do all the things Nice Girls wish they could do but can’t. It isn’t a coincidence that girls who are raised by strict parents or in deeply religious families are often the ones who get involved with bad boys. It’s their way of rebelling against all the rules; they’re being bad vicariously, without having to take responsibility for it.”
