The Cause of William's Misogyny?

I am very curious about why William (AKA Wilson Green) had developed a misogynistic attitude towards women. I haven't found too much information to explain this other than he had been a virgin before the events of the first two comics. Is this the only reason or was there something else that caused this behavior?

That is something I'd like to know as well actually.

The only bits I could pick up on are the fact that he was quite stern on the whole Mysioginist thing, right before Violet gives him a bad case of Rigor Mortis, followed by the greatest time of his life.

.......do we get a story time from William's past now?

I've never had the impression that William was a misogynist. My impression is that he simply had a rather childish view of women and sex at the time when he arrived in Bon Bon. He was a virgin, and probably still looked at girls, thinking they're stupid and that sex is gross. It's like he simply hadn't been around any members of the opposite sex long enough to develop any kind of affection or lust for them.

Hm... Perhaps he was taken to a males only boarding school when he was young? That would have significantly reduced his exposure to members of the opposite sex.

More likely it was his mother.

Mother who was very commanding, dominating, and made him think other women where evil.

Will was pretty much a virgin, until he finally had sex for the first time, he filled that void by his lust for gambling. You can tell by his reaction and revelation that his views about sex and the more fair gender was pretty much the opposite of his former opinion.

Wasn't there something else to it besides his virginity and naive outlook on it? I could of sworn Vanessa and the Comic hinted at a troubled past dealing with women. Perhaps a peeping gal caught a glimpse of William's pecker when he was least expecting it and told rumors of him at a young age, giving him more reason to curse women.
