Probably called "wannabes" during my time, also. Achilleus, I think the name implies something that women discard after use, sir.
I sort of agree with this.. I have dated more than one... and one did have a bicep band tattoo of a Celtic symbol (I have no idea what it actually meant but it was a neat design) So I figured that counted. But I too saw the light and redeemed myself... of course it took me a bit to realize the second non-tattooed douchebag was in fact of the douchebag ranks. I consider myself fully educated in the douchebag department now. Meggo, you are redeemed.. don't allow a past douchebag to decrease your self confidence level. I refuse to believe we are in any way douchebag like because we were foolish enough to date one...or two... temporarily!
the ageless story, women want to date the "badboy" "cool" guy and then realize its not all cracked up to be
Thank you! The vote of confidence I was looking for. So Hayesfan and I vote E: We are women who once dated a douchebag but have seen the light.
In the forever legendary faos thread (hot chicks with douchebags), I said that a douchebag is best described by his motive and not his clothing. To me, a douche is a self centered jerk that shows no respect to others. And though I've paid 120 dollars for some nike-dunk shoes circa ferris bueller 1986, to wear with my gray suit and black dress shirt, I've never been a jerk to someone that didn't deserve it. a douchebag: a man with style:
I answered yes, but based on this list, I'll change to no. I'm certainly not a DB now, but I was a cocky b*stard when I was single. If anything, I was a geek in disguise. The only things I've ever done on this list are: Spikey hair- not full on porcupine, though. It was just my style. Shirtless Shirt- but it was in Galveston, in the summer. It's so casual here, and freaking hot. The lips thing- I've done it as a joke. Does that count?
No, you've got a free pass on that one, only because it was a joke. Had you been serious, you would have been a douchebag.

According to the definitions of douchebag, I am dating a douchebag. My bf is in a fraternity and that doesn't make him a douchebag. He doesn't do all other "douchebag" things. I love douchebags!
I don't think some of you guys really understood what I meant when I posted that list. It's a list of things that you might commonly find on or about a douchebag. Since I haven't done those things, the result is a lower probability that I'm a douche. However, having done one/any of those things doesn't necessarily mean that someone is a douche...but I would say that it's more likely. Maybe I was too specific with the John Deere hat comment, but I was really referring to trucker hats in general. Again, if you've worn one that doesn't mean you're a douchebag...it just increases your chances.
I am very confused by this thread, so I think I'm too old to be one. I've done none of the things on the list except maybe spiky hair (big spikes) in the early 1980's...
