Find a closet freak with some kind of neurosis that forces him to be a nice guy on the surface. That seems to have worked out pretty well for my wife.

I've had a theory for a long time. Women are "hard wired" to be attracted to the biggest, meanest M-Fer in the tribe. Back in prehistoric times, the Alpha male was best suited to protect a woman. This gave her (and her offspring) the best chance at surviving, and included some nice percs. Now though, the best suited to protect and provide is an MBA. So women have this almost innate conflict - their gut/emotional desire to got with the brute, their rational analysis to go with the nerd.
