You don't need to thrust them in the port that vigorously.

Yes, blame the user. That always works!

Blaming a specific user can be entirely reasonable. Unless you know that everyone else has the same experience as you, you may just be an outlier that uses cables in ways they just can't handle. I don't know what you do with your cables, but I've never had the connector of any cable break on me. The cables themselves, especially near the connectors, and the connectors on devices: those break.
