There has been a lot of research done on this topic. Even if research didn't confirm this, just from common knowledge, we can usually see this is generally accepted as true.

Kinks like necrophilia, beastiality, scat, vore, and pedophilia are almost exclusively male. We see this in both reported stats as well as crime stats and the examples of sexual serial murderers or serial rapists.

You see a lot of "women are just as sexual/nasty/perverted as men are! Women like these things too!" But this is just untrue, and provably so.

Notably, studies will often include statements such as "well women are less likely to admit to fetishes! They're less likely to go to psychiatrists about fetishes!" Or something, but this is also just a claim that can't really be proven, and even in purely anonymous spaces the results are the same. Despite claims that "this one study might not be accurate results!" The results still come out consistent with each.

Also notably, examples given of "women like it too!" Are usually pornography - in which women are frequently paid or forced into acts they do not like.

What is it that causes this? Is it something about an inherent nature of men that makes them more prone to this? Are these people born this way, or is it due to something that happens to them?

Data would suggest that it is likely somewhat inherent - boys and girls usually have similar experiences, so if it were trauma based we would also see girls with these fetishes, but this is almost unheard of. If it is trauma, why do you think it effects men in this way and not women?

Many would argue that, due to the fact that in our perception, the commonality of these fetishes has risen so greatly in recent history, it may have to do with pornography and dopamine receptors. Many criminal sexual deviants have reported that over time they had to seek out pornography that was more and more extreme to fulfill sexual urges and that their kinks were discovered through porn. Could this explain the increase, or do you think these kinks have always been more common, and we just didn't know of them?
