the incel ideology is snake oil, and the redpill/manosphere content sphere is packed full of snake oil salesmen they tell young, sad, angry men if they just listen to their advice that women will be crawling over each other for a chance. that only idiots don't follow this advice, and they're special and smart for listening. then they tell them to behave in repulsive, disgusting ways to ensure they come back for more of the "cure"
yeah like and i mean this in the best possible way, it seems stupid 😭 like getting into a relationship isn't easy for anyone. especially now like gen z and younger millennials aren't really dating and people r going into their 30 as virgins. i just find it so weird why it's become an entire movement based on such a stupid notion.
Probably because incel is a term for a misogynistic hate group, and that man was a misogynist. Evidently, he was not being made fun of for being a virgin. The primary association with incel is obviously woman-hater because of its own creators and internet history. I think you just need to stop viewing incel as another term for virgin when it never has been. a man in the 1920s doesn’t know what an incel is: incel does not exist without its internet context & community
Probably because there are actual incels… who hate women because they are unable to have success dating them… who OP was talking about. OP was likely referring to the exact group which she addressed. Not virgins, not just misogynists, but red-pilled incels. Did we not consider that at all?
It is relevant, because incels often discuss how women are entitled to women because women are objects for their sexual gratification. their whole psyche evolves from a belief they are entitled to sex. it is a unique, sinister, icky form of misogyny that OP wanted to call out PRECISELY.
It’s not. The resentment these men have toward women is “I am not being given something that I am owed. I am ENTITLED to your body, and because you have autonomy wrongfully granted through feminism, I have lost something I am entitled to” it is different. you haven’t experienced it because you are a man, but if women want to speak about that kind of misogyny, please stop policing them.
I don’t think it’s right for you to say that women’s experience of misogyny isn’t different in different contexts. A womanizing Andrew Tate does not hit the same way a kick from an incel does. And idk how to say that to a man because you will never experience misogyny. But I don’t think you can just minimize these differences & police women’s language because YOU think these differentiations don’t matter.
The problem is that they believe they are entitled to sex at all. Whether they are virgins who feel entitled to sex in spite of not having it or “chads” who feel entitled to sex precisely because they have it so often is purely circumstantial. The misogyny in question is entitlement, a misogynist being more fortunate with women doesn’t make him any less misogynistic.
I’m sure some of y’all know but for those who don’t, I think it’s important to say that Elliot Rodger was a mass shooter/murderer who perpetuated a mass shorting at UCSB and wrote a misogynistic manifesto that inspired incel culture - historical context is important and I think it’s okay to have these contextual labels.
STOP DENYING WOMEN’S EXPERIENCE OF DIFFERENT FORM OF MISOGYNY AS A MAN WHO DOES NOT EXPERIENCE IT AT ALL. is all racism the same? all homophobia the same? sure, it’s all misogyny, but calling out a specific kind of misogyny is allowed. Stop denying how women experience misogyny differently in different contexts.
If a woman wants to call out incel BS, let her. Your discomfort with a woman’s critique does not justify her not speaking about the precise form of misogyny she’d like to discuss. You should not shreak and cry about this because you are not an incel. End of story. The world does not revolve around you. Incel is a word people are allowed to use.
oh I spent way too much of my time trying to help them. I’m a woman and im lonely too. tired of men being the only ones who are allowed to sit here and bitch about being lonely. I get it’s a mental health issue, but like if I can get up out of bed on my hardest days, be kind to people, and try to make friends/maintain meaningful connections because it’ll pay off, so can men that are lonely. it’s just about trying and not giving a fuck about rejection
Hey so this is literally what i said in an earlier comment! I'm talking about specifically about men who don't have sex and feel entitled to sex with women and hate them for not giving them attention. I'm not even talking abt virgins bc the term doesn't even mean celibate someone who has never had sex. It just means restrained from sexual activity. You can still be an incel and not a virgin.
I’m so shot lol. like can we all just give some of this shit a rest. gender doesn’t fucking matter. it’s a construct. we’re all tired and all want friends and all want relationships. put down your phones, and leave the house. touch grass. drink with friends. do something to be connected to other human beings. and try to actually enjoy it even if you have differences with them. like have your parents never said this to you???
The thing is number 6, I did get your point. You are just wrong. Let me break it down for you. You were offended by my use of the word incel, bc not all men who don't have sex are misogynistic which you would be correct, which i acknowledged your correctness and explained why i didn't use the term misogynist. Everyone here has said that the term incel and the way I used it is referring to a man who is misogynistic.
Every incel is a misogynist, but not every misogynist is an incel. Clavicular is the latter. As I said plenty of married men/men who date women are misogynist. My post wasn't about them. It was specifically about the men who feel as if they are entitled to sex from women and hate women because they don't provide that sexual gratification. It's very counterproductive and stupid to want something you hate. Which is why I made a post about it
I’m willing to help lonely men who are receptive to help, and I will make fun of the ones who have radicalized themselves into an incel hole too deep for me to pull them out of. I’m a dude who hasn’t had the easiest time in the world with women. My fear of rejection led me to not try, and then I didn’t really know how to try when I wanted to. That shit sucks. But if I hear a mf talking on some “foid” shit, then yeah, I have to laugh at them.
I mean you’re more likely to be mistreated by someone you’re in a relationship with than someone you’re not, that’s kinda just a matter of chance. I know plenty of dudes who have also stayed with shitty girlfriends because they were more scared of being alone than they were of her bullshit. That’s how it goes sometimes man. Abusive people tend to be manipulative people, and there are easily manipulated members of both sexes.
do they? radical women who hate men typically don't date them. that's what the 4B movement was about. also the hate and extreme misogyny incels participate in and spread across the internet is on a WHOLE different level than the women at your job who are complaining that men suck. misogyny kills women. misandry is a direct consequence of that extreme misogyny. women are the only marginalized community who aren't allowed to hate their oppressors.
its no ones to blame. love and romance is supposed to happen naturally, and if it doesn’t work out between two individuals it just means you weren’t meant to be together. the whole notion that attractiveness needs to be at a certain level in order to get women needs to be squashed. good women want to be with good men. i'm dating my boyfriend bc he's a good person.
These guys see girls post “I hate men” after a breakup or some shit and internalize it as being some deeply held conviction and not the same type of momentary anger we all know a lot of guys have been through. We all know a guy who has said “bitches ain’t shit” after a breakup, gotten over it, and been chill after. Women do THE SAME EXACT SHIT. That’s what makes these types so baffling to me. Every complaint they say “women do” has a male corollary lmao
