Deep dives

Defining the Likable Badass

The concept of a 'likable badass' combines two essential traits: being likable and being competent. Likability refers to being other-oriented and caring about the well-being of others, while being a badass indicates reliability and the ability to perform tasks effectively. Achieving a balance between these traits helps individuals gain the respect and value they deserve from others. This approach emphasizes that both men and women seek status, but women, in particular, may face additional challenges in gaining the same level of respect due to societal biases.
