I think this is partly driven by a mixture of misogyny and low self-esteem

It's also driven by isolation. There's a reason there are so many incels out in the sticks. These guys have never been popular, so they locked themselves away, in a place where you already have to work to meet people. They basically never socially mature, and get all their human interaction on 4chan
