I've absolutely been a nice guy, recently even, and am projecting my deep sense of shame by mocking others, rather than directly addressing the unhealthy friendship I had with a woman recently in a manner that would almost certainly lead to mockery by my fellow goons if shared.

Where do guys get these Madonna-whore complexes? Is there something in society that pushes this line of thinking?

Men sleeping with women, at least everywhere I grew up, was seen as an awesome high-five thing, the more, the awesomerer, and in all kinds of media the chaste, unsullied princess or girl-next-door is the man's reward for a job well done. Hell, even in the Odyssey, dude gets to bang hot chicks on his way home and nobody cares, but his wife's only deeds that are noted are not putting out until her man (assumed dead) comes home.

Men are given leeway, as they "can't control themselves," and "boys will be boys," and the responsibility for men's sexual actions is often shifted onto the women whom they sleep with. The women are essentially seen as irresponsible and devaluing themselves by general society.

This sense of responsibility projected onto women is tied to how reproduction works, traditional division of labor due to sexual dimorphism and also traditional systems of inheritance and governance. Women have high risk, low reward for sexual activity in a setting without very reliable birth control/safe abortion, especially considering their future is often tied to whomever fathers their child, or else they are often relegated to the poorhouse to struggle with raising the child on their own. Both nature and society puts great pressure on the woman to make a careful and considered choice regarding a mate, including factors like his social and financial status. Promiscuity is further frowned on because if someone outside your family fathers a bastard child who is in line to inherit your stuff, there is real potential for theft of wealth and property, possibly the result of multiple generations of careful accumulation, or sometimes even entire nations, as occasionally happened in history.

So you've got all of this poo poo built up that has been kicking around even up until today, mixed with modern contraceptives, safe abortion, very lucrative, non-physically demanding labor where the woman is equal to the man and can often provide adequate support for herself, modern welfare systems in varying degrees to ease the burden of raising children, very different inheritance laws, generally free choice of marriage partner in most places and other progressive stuff. This is at odds with most of history and probably even some of our baked in defaults as social primates.

So, even today, there's a sort of background assumption that a woman's worth as a human being is tied to all of that stuff, so she is as valuable as the man she can pair with and bear children for. Since she is in control of her actions and the only absolutely sure way to not get pregnant is to abstain from sex, this is the default expectation for women.

A man or a woman sizing up another woman's value uses black and white thinking (our brains work best that way) and reduces them to either virgin or promiscuous, or Madonna*-whore. With value or without value. The man barely shares any of the burdens or responsibilities of the woman aside from what society and romantic pair bonding chances to enforce, so he is free to act as he will in most cases. Sex is fun, so he is told to go have fun, or is at the very least usually excused for his falling to temptation.

*Madonna refers to the Catholic tradition of Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, who is said to have been taken into heaven still a virgin. That seems a bit suspect since Jesus is mentioned to have brothers and likely had sisters as well, but that's some heathen baptist poo poo. Just wanted to point out that she was so virginal that she gave birth at least once, if not multiple times without ever having sex once. Madonna does not refer to the recording artist. Sorry for that aside

This is all my personal opinion and could be completely wrong. Feel free to educate me. I enjoy learning.

My girlfriend's cousin is a turbo gay and constantly posts MRA rants and pictures of nearly naked hunks on Facebook that his mom will always 'Like' without fail.

He's dating someone twice his age because he lives in a bumfuck rural town of like 50 people so that was probably his only option.

I was a nice guy 14 years ago then I hit puberty, girls approached me, I got my dick wet, and in doing so grew the gently caress up.*

*Disclaimer: getting your dick wet not an actual panacea for maturity it so happened to eradicate a toxic line of social reasoning in this one case.

Is there a special term for female "nice guys", or are they called "nice girls"? Like frumpy, socially-maladjusted girls who get friendzoned because the guys would rather be with nasty bimbos wearing swastika nail decals and I <3 Satan bikinis (and not because the nice girls are awkward and offputting). I don't think this has been answered yet in the thread, although after 170+ pages I can't remember.

I read a study on capuchin monkeys a few years ago. I could be getting the species wrong but I believe they were capuchins. Basically, if you isolate a male capuchin and it never learns proper sexual behaviors, it'll become extremely aggressive in sexual situations. Sexual instincts and hormones are flooding their brain but they don't know what to actually do so they become aggressive towards females.

not that different from people.

Assuming this is real for fun, when you unpack it, its a neat little vignette about how much trouble the internet shut-ins have interacting with the rest of the world. He uses a bunch of words that he thinks make him sound smart, but arranges them so awkwardly, and stumbles over the basics of subject/verb agreement and preposition use that the whole thing comes out like a fart in church. And he picks this point he wants to make that he thinks the rest of the world will look at and think, "Wow, that guy is really deep and interesting." and comes across as a massive poo poo heel who's so tone deaf that he thinks, "They're only laughing at me because of how insecure my shining example has made them about themselves."

Its like a verbal fedora.

its because he doesnt know what smart is. he reads 2 books that are noted for being "deep" and thinks about "deep" poo poo too. id consider my self relatively intelligent at least when it comes to history/politics/weird poo poo. but when i am not doing college work, i am playing dumb poo poo games or talking with my friends or GF. i dont need to loving project/virtue signal how loving "smart" i am. it is a vebal fedora like you said.
