Narcissistic men aren’t psychologically straight, even though sxually they may be. They sleep with women, flirt with them, and even marry them, but deep down, their loyalty, admiration, and emotional allegiance belong to men. Not always in a romantic or sxual sense, but in a way that reveals something far darker: an obsession with male dominance, a pathological need for approval from other men, and a deep-seated belief that women are fundamentally flawed and inferior. This is more than attraction; it is codependency on male validation. It’s not just disturbing; it’s misogyny in its rawest form.
These men use women as trophies but worship men as gods. They may make love to their wives in the bedroom and then spend hours anxiously obsessing over whether their male friends, fathers, or brothers approve of how they are living their lives. Their definition of manhood is not internal; it is shaped by a fraternity of male figures whose opinions matter more than their own spouse’s emotional safety. That is what makes them emotionally dependent on male dominance.
This isn’t about the narcissistic dynamic; sxual orientation matters. A gày man may not desire women, but that doesn’t mean he sees them as worthless. In fact, many gày men have deep friendships with women because they recognize their intellect, humanity, and strength. A narcissistic man, on the other hand, sees women as beneath him. He can be straight, married, and even have children, but in his mind, women are emotional laborers, caretakers, or background props. He does not respect their ideas, their voices, or their autonomy. He needs women to exist in the orbit of his ego, not to challenge him, guide him, or grow with him.
This is where it gets psychologically twisted. A narcissistic man does not operate as an individual; he operates as a puppet of male expectation. His identity isn’t anchored in values, integrity, or truth; it is anchored in how other men perceive him. He is terrified of being seen as weak, soft, emotional, or under the influence of a woman. To him, that is the ultimate humiliation. That’s why he would rather betray his wife than disappoint his brother. That is why he will risk his family’s well-being to maintain his place in the male hierarchy.
