I'm not trying to put words in your mouth since it's a discussion from years ago I barely remember but I do remember the whole forum being against you.
But even apart from that you've made it very clear that you are attached to your masculinity in a little boy lost kind of way and the amount of sex you have is integral to that self perception. That's the core of rape culture. Guys want to get laid to prove that they are men and that drive causes them to ignore or rationalize things that get in the way of that.
It can be as brazen as "No means yes, yes means anal", or it can be as subtle as offering a woman a drink at the bar. That drink might just be social reciprocity since it's a bar and booze is social currency in all bar situations, but it can also be a calculated attempt to subvert consent even if you're not aware of it.
