You aren't the funny guy, the smart guy, you're just the nice guy. So you don't get laid. Being "bad" in some form is at least interesting.
Being nice (and I mean actually nice, not the "nice" that people claim to be while actually being assholes who think basic manners should earn them sexual rewards) is not a particularly distinguishing trait. Lots of people, hopefully most people are nice. It's a good thing to be but not the kind of quality that makes you stand out and catches someone's attention. Plenty of nice people are winning romantically but it's because they've managed to show off something much individual and interesting about themselves.
I'm not sure what people try to get at when they talk about "bad" boys. Are they just talking about a stereotypical image or are they talking about men who actively treat women poorly? Even if it's the latter... well, it's not like women typically go "oh you look like you'd treat me really poorly, that's so hot." They're responding to other traits that came off as interesting/positive.
Finally, to add to this, many of these "nice guys" are only being nice to seek the approval of women they want to fuck. Women are very good at spotting fake men, hence why these guys don't get laid.
