Edward Sexby: Nice Guy? or Pick-Up Artist? (a.k.a. 'Bad Boy')
There seems to be some big societal debate going on these days about which women really prefer.
My first, initial impression is that poor Sexby (no matter how tough or "bad-ass" he may actually be by the standards of the day) *does* seem to spend an *ungodly*-long time stuck in the dreaded "Friend Zone." LoL!
From what I can figure out, being what is now called a "Bad Boy" (a.k.a. "Pick-Up Artist") has close to nothing to do with how a man might handle himself in combat of any kind, then or now.
Ozy
And I stood where I did be; for there was no more use to run; And again I lookt with my hope gone.
