The male psyche is characterized by mild to severe narcissism. The only reason why it's not rightfully pathologized is because it's part of their biology - they all meet the criteria, so it's their "norm". They come pre-equipped with Dunning-Kruger and positive bias because males are largely expendable (just like their gametes). Their reproductive strategy favors retarded risks because the sole reason why they exist is being a vehicle for genetic diversity and the worst possible outcome for a male is to not reproduce - it's equivalent to death (incels in particular are very truthful about this). So to them, risking everything to make it as a glorified sperm wagon (or doing absolutely anything to spread their DNA as much as possible, whether it's immoral or not) makes sense because it beats quietly waiting to perish. This is what they evolved to do, and absolutely everything about the male mind revolves around this premise. They are not full humans, they are a highly specialized evolutionary crutch with a very narrow task to perform.
