nope. it implies a craven amount of insecurity.
it says something though that so many people assume this, it's certainly not just you.
Whatever. It gives off the impression of confidence. We're trying to explain observed phenomena here, not cast moral judgements.
In my case, you're wrong, the guy is like a tank, insecurity is not the case. I see some people trying to "dig deeper":
No, he is a confident asshole, and his "charm" works one some women (and not each of them falls into made-up categories). People look for patterns too much. "I'm a red-piller" - lol, that's a first.
Note, I'm not protecting the guy, but he is not a comic-book villain with an origin story. He just happens to be successful in finding one-night stands because of a personal trait.
Edit: forgotten line breaks
a lot of people who over-invest on physical attributes have serious insecurities.
I hold to my premise. it in no way discredits him being an asshole in his coping with these issues.
Not strong like a tank, I meant by attitude. Ok, you invent whatever person you want in your head.
