HiThere
This guy I know acts like an a$$hole, especially to women (myself included) and has told me at least a few times "yep, I'm an a$$hole" as if he is proud of it and thinks he's impressing people.
My theory is that it's actually a cover for major insecurities. Otherwise why would someone feel the need to prove what an a$$hole he is??? Anyway, I told him to shove off.

HiThere,
As a matter of fact, guys are extremely immature- believe it or not. That makes them easily influenced by peers and especially media. If being the a$$hole is considered as trendy then that is what he would be and if being the romantic type is what is considered as in vogue well, that is what you'll see!
Basically as you mentioned a lot of them do that do cover up their insecurities. Another theory could be that they lack originality/ self esteem/ a personal aura to be able to build a personality- so all they do is amplifying an already existing personality. Yet another theory could be they they lack attention and being "a$$hole" seemed judicious enough to grab all the attention out there. Theory number 4 could be that they want to integrate and feel accepted by a group of peers. Theory No 5 could also be that they think that girls are attracted to this behavior.
Just to put it simply- HE MUST be ENDORSING THIS DEMEANOR to feel accepted/ feel good about himself.
Perhaps that he just needs time to understand who he wants to be/ some space to grow and understand that sociologically he is not the one controlling his life but rather other people and institutions or perhaps that is what he will forever be the "a$$hole" but that is impossible since living = change= primordial! :)
And then bragging could just because they are disillusioned about themselves that they need to say it constantly so that they can make themselves believe it. Besides it is in The male and masculine nature to declare publicly Who they APPARENTLY Are!..
Blame it on hormones or due to the way they are influenced, it is still related to them..
Hope I answered your question! :)
