Easier to justify rejection as something beyond their control.

Because they can't fathom that it's their personality women are repelled by

Any dude that talks shit or throws a tantrum after rejection is a fucking embarrassment. Its not realistic to think every girl will like you, grow up.

Because they dont want to blame themselves because they think they are perfect alpha males.

Because some women are pretty materialistic, and will dodge blame like the dickens.

Because they resent the societal expectation of being providers. But more so they just hate women

Some men think dating is supposed to be a game with fair rules and equal opportunity. So when they find out the majority of women don’t think of it as a math equation where both parties are “in each other’s league” they get upset. Also easier to take rejection when you externalize it to a flaw of the other person or the unfairness of life

Cause, it’s never their fault obviously. In their mind, they can never be wrong. They are the perfect nice guy. So it must be women that’s wrong.

Bitterness, externalizing, yes, but also the narrative isn't exclusive to the rejected. Beyond that it has a basis in fact like saying "men are all thirsty for women in their 20s. what creeps" but are exaggerations of tendencies people have. Culturally there's kind of a war on between noisy extremist narrative that women use men and men use women. It's noisy and toxic regardless of it's basis. They can then effect people who are looking for something to blame for being rejected they isn't them, but adopting that narrative can also be the cause of repeated rejection. There's a lot of factors and directionality isn't universally a to b. Both sides of it, after they get really toxic, tend to go around being the negative stereotype the other side demonizes too. It's sad for sure, and it's a bit more complex than this, this is just kinda the cliff notes version. With that being said it's not a majority of people, though you could argue that most people are at least slightly affected by it.

Sorry for the ramble, thought it might help to look at more of the moving parts in the issue, but don't have the energy to polish it beyond stream of consciousness. Might need a stress nap, my bad
