This. Everyone sees themselves as the standard, the "normal". Even if they are far, far away from "normal".

Yup, if they married and had a child with a man like this, you can't really expect the people they surround themselves with to be vastly different. So they'd think it's normal to be like this.

Its a lot easier to say "men are just like that" than to admit "my man just kinda sucks"

Yes, there are millions of sucky men, and millions of women date and/or marry them. While thats unfortunate, that doesn't make the sucky behavior the norm.
