Maybe "jerks" is too strong here, but certainly not being their genuine natural (and sometimes vulnerable) imperfect selves. | Because women (especially young women) tend to prefer strong, assertive, confident men? And 'jerkishness' is what results when someone who doesn't have confidence, pretends to?
