It's a narrative to mate-guard; they want all the upside in potential mates/dates, but they have an extreme zero-sum mindset with respect to BM's contentment; BM pain – dating or in other instances – is often a thing of joy or amusement – including for the despicable BM simps.

Men get played very, very often... ladies have monopolized the victimhood in this area - in part through male silence, & also due to female privilege of being assumed as sweetness & light, whilst men are assumed to be inherently bad. If men do good - it's deemed a 'rarity'.
