1) there could be an evolutionary advantage for women to be attracted to dominant partners

That wasn't my main point, but yeah I do believe that to be true.

2) in your anecdotal experience, acting like an arrogant dick gets you laid.

Not just my experience, it's a pretty commonly known aspect of sexual dynamics. I guarantee you that this isn't the first you've heard of this concept.

For point two, have you considered that you might be mistaking confidence for dominance and arrogance?

Yes, hence why I went back with confidence but without the pushy arrogance. I've experimented multiple times with this, the results are remarkably consistent.

With the rest of this paragraph, I was not being a footstool, I was treating them with the same respect that I treat other men I meet.

I actually think that's very likely, based on the fact that you think you've figured it all out by reducing the romantic, emotional, and sexual interests of an entire half of the population to "just be a dick to them, they like that.

I pretty clearly specified that I'm talking about sex, not romance or emotional needs.

You seem out of touch (and a little bit misogynist) if you think you can put all women under one tent and describe them so simplistically.

You seem offended. I think men are equally as simple in what they find sexually attractive.

Edit: Oh, and the fact that you used the phrase "nice guy" unironically.

I used the word nice guy because that's how women brand that behavior.

If you want to continue this conversation, I suggest you don't take everything I say so personally.
