"Nice Guys rarely speak up when something bothers them, and rarely state clearly what it is they want, need and expect. They fear that any kind of conflict might spell the end of the relationship. Instead of comprimising and negotiating, they repeatedly 'give in'."
And then at the very end of the piece, she even goes out with this:
"You have to know what you want out of life, and go after it. Only then will you be attractive to the kind of woman with whom a long-term relationship is possible."
It seems to me that she wishes nice guys were more pursuant to their desires, not less, and I don't see any lines that would suggest that she thinks that "nice guys" are just acting that way to get something.
Could you quote the part that made you think that's what she was saying? I probably just missed it or something, heh.
P.S. Thank you for the compliment. And for the XKCD link too. :P
