Relationship week continues on the Chris Hill Festival as we ponder that age old question: why do girls go after bad boys in an effort to "bring out their sensitive side"?

Or, to put it in Simpsons terms:

Lisa: "I guess you could say I want to bring out the Milhouse in Nelson".
Milhouse: "But I'm *all* Milhouse!"

Some of my weblogless friends and I discussed it and couldn't really come up with a legitimate-sounding reason. I mean, if you ask a guy what he looks for in a girl, most of them don't say "sleeps around", "sketchy", or "jailtime", but to a girl these traits become things like "free-spirited", "unique", and "rebellious".

Well, I've put in a minimal amount of thought into the subject, now it's your turn. My efforts to make the Festival an interactive experience have mostly failed, but I'm serious this time. You have a number of options for letting your voice be heard. You can post to your own weblog and then give me a heads up so I can link to it, you can email me your thoughts and I'll post them here myself, or you can even IM me at crhill1979.
