I believe Mc is a sexual abuse victim with hyper-sexuality which is why he continues to sleep around. he uses sex as a way to protect himself because that is how he learned to do so in the past.
He convinces himself that he actually wants to do this and that at times because the thought that his sense of control is actually being taken away from him frightens him so he seeks to lie to himself to protect his own psyche.
Which is why he submits himself to Vercious’ rape and why even though Vercion coming onto him terrified him before, he sleeps with him again in ryeo because in face of this new and strange environment + seeing old trauma come up, the only thing he can comfort himself is with sex with vercion because only sex and vercion were familiar to him.
To him sex is what he uses to comfort and pleasure himself, it is his comfort zone even though flashbacks say otherwise, he has not yet learned to use other means.
