Fun fact: People with certain proclivities often cannot conceive of other people not sharing those proclivities. In this case, a serial sexual assaulter and rapist assumes that all men are prone to the same behavior. This is a prime example of what is commonly known as a “self-report.”
I’m not a psychologist (minor in psychology) but this I think is what is called the illusory superiority; an effect where stupid people don’t know that they’re stupid and assume that they’re smarter than everyone else. Donny fits this to a T since he actually believes that he’s smarter than everyone. It goes hand in hand with his sociopathic narcissism.
