Why did my boyfriend make crude and misogynistic jokes about women?

Anonymous
I broke up with my boyfriend a couple of months ago.
The first time I met him he told me he was not going to drink because he had been at karaoke at the gay village the night before. He also told me that he thought his ex-girlfriend was frigid because she refused to hold his hand.

During our relationship, he would often refer to women as 'nymphomaniacs' and 'bitches.' He called my elder sister a nymphomaniac because I told him she got into relationships where she was tricked into having sex. When we went on holiday together I told him my female cousin who is very attractive was getting hit on by the men, and my boyfriend said 'she's only a 6/10 to me.'

He would often make crude jokes about women and their genitals, and say that he was told women's vaginas smelt like fish and that he would never dream of going down on me in marriage.
We never had sex at all, and he would often make out with me, but if things went further, he would often tell me to stop and seem very anxious. He would then ring me up later telling me if we ended up sleeping together, we would have to break up.

He would often make crude jokes about women and when we were together, he would look up rude words about women's genitals on google and show me graphic pictures and laugh at them.
One woman once got his order wrong at a takeaway, and he called her a 'stupid bitch'

Why was he so misogynistic about women?
