I saw this from Rolf Degen and I knew the second I saw it, that jimmies were going to be rustled. You have someone who only gets a few replies and a number of retweets go viral because feelings were going to get hurt.
And it isn't surprising that if you have very successful men with the dark triad personality traits, they are not going to treat women with the upmost of respect but rather see them as bed notches and conquests or at best, the current option before a younger, lesser aged option comes along.
But that doesn't fit the mainstream narrative of Chad good, Virgin bad. Society places a value judgement on men based on their ability to attract a mate and we look at men who succeed in finding a partner in a better light than the man who consistently fails. We deem the former to be successful and the latter to be misogynistic. Which is why we are starting to see a push to outlaw many acts and behaviours aimed and performed by single men that are seen as misogynistic, devoid of a woman in presence or exploitative of women and a redefining of a consensual and legal act to be between (a minimum of) two consenting adults in private without payment post MeToo, Brand and the Incel moral panic.
And the real kicker, the study used to measure what was deemed misogynistic? Elliot Rodger's own definition!
I note at least one prominent evolutionary psychology researcher has condemned the study and insists that misogyny is linked to women's attraction and perception of that man and his success in dating.
A few replies are suggesting that Chads sees the true nature of their conquests and that might be why the original study came to the conclusion they dispute.
That seems to correlate with what feminists claim, that sexism is linked to women's perception of that man. That men who are "creeps" or give the "ick" are perceived as sexist.

wait - what was eliot rodger’s definition?
Quoting the study paper (ie. their words direct from Elliot, not mine):
"Table 1
The Extreme Misogyny Scale derived from Elliot Rodger’s manifesto My Twisted World
I have uneasy feelings of nervousness and fear around girls.
Evil acts are rewarded by women.
The power that beautiful women have is unbelievable. They can temporarily turn a desperate boy’s whole world around just by smiling.
Females truly have something mentally wrong with them. Their minds are flawed.
Women are sexually attracted to the wrong type of man.
Women’s sexual attractions are flawed.
Women are incapable of reason or thinking rationally.
Women are like a plague that must be quarantined.
Women’s rejection of ugly men is a declaration of war.
You need to attract girls at an early age to avoid your life to fall into a miserable pit of despair.
If a man is all alone, people get the impression that girls are repulsed by him, and therefore he is a worthless loser.
The meanest and most depraved of men come out on top, and women flock to these men.
To see another male be successful with females is torture."
Thanks! Not sure how that scale is increasing or decreasing in severity though
