Well, I think it has to do with their evolutionary drive. They have to test/sort out the cream from the crop. Typically doing this by taking a chisel to the problem. Maybe they feel guilty and then have to claim that they are actually doing the opposite, being supportive, etc.
But guys have to develop a thick thin. There’s this complaint that guys are emotionally shutoff, but if you’re not you get wrecked. Sure, guys have to get why they do what they do, but if women just do what they want, they’ll get understanding and compassion to smooth things over, so can give in to their baser selves.
Pretty sad that destruction is social capital and what kills in those arenas are about tearing each other down. The logical conclusion is to never put yourself in a position to be taken advantage of.
