What classifies a man as a "good" guy...?

...and under what circumstances would he become a bad boy? Instead of complaining why females tend to go for the "bad boys", wouldn't it be better to think that we go for good men gone bad? And vice-versa on the question. Under what circumstances would a bad guy become good? Is it safe to assume that every guy is good, they just have their bad moments?

I ask this question before but I just want to get the philosophy majestic of it.)

    A good guy? I don't know. A good man? I've been taught and have learned to believe that a good man respects other peoples right to their opinions, tries to do no harm to others - physically or emotionally, and is true to his word. Turning bad would mean any deviation from the previous. Turning from bad to good, would mean adopting these three tennets of humanity.

    Safe to assume that every guy is good? No. Neither is it safe to assume every guy is bad.

    In movies, a clean cop or an US trooper; in life, somebody who always treat the others as friends. By the way, a lot of girls are crazy about bad boys, so it could be an advantage in this respect.

    My opinion.

    Have a nice day

    there is really no classification since they're all subjective.

    Who you consider good guy is a bad guy to the other.
