Why do females love using these words to describe men? (specifically their ex's)

I swear every woman loves throwing around the words narcissistic and sociopath to describe men they've previously dated and had failed relationships with. Anyone else notice this? I feel as if its some kind of deep-seated psychological rationalization to make sense of being cheated on, lied to, etc.

with how often I hear this from women I'd assume that 90% of men walking around are Pat Bateman

Any misc brahs have any funny stories that are relatable?

Any female miscers guilty of doing this?

Sort of like bitching about your borderline ex girlfriends. It's always easier to blame a personality disorder rather than look at your own dysfunction. Even if it's true, WTF is wrong with you that you decided to date someone with a personality disorder?

This. They think labeling their ex absolves them of any blame in the relationship.

Because they don't know what those words mean.

Or because he was actually a narcissist or a sociopath. However it would be hard to believe a sociopath would be in a committed relationship, and even more so that they wouldn't end the relationship through murder. Because that's what sociopaths do.

Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

I've... actually never bad mouthed my exes using any of those words. I've always dated decently good dudes personality wise. People just grow a part and want different things.

I have used words like...

- lazy / useless / dirty
- Not handy
- Unmotivated
- complacent

To describe some scenarios lmao.

The magnitude of the words are becoming diluted and less impactful with each woman running around labeling every guy that she doesn't like with them

They like to throw around "sociopath" because they think it sounds smart. Herp derp he called me out for being a useless whore, what a sociopath

some of the most heated times between me and women were because i simply wasn't afraid to call them out on their bs or because I didn't bend on an opposing opinion on something

Women say anything to validate their centre of the universe image where they never do wrong.

Most of these make more sense to describe in a dynamic, as most people do not know enough to understand these relationships in abstract.

My favourite part is when they apologize for it. If they do, that’s how you know they’re actually pretty decent women. They’re emotional, nobody’s perfect.
