    If you haven't read up on the "Involuntary Celibate" (Incel) online misogynist community, go ahead. Another example of how the neo-nazi alt-right is almost indistinguishable frpm the "PUA" misogynist movement.https://twitter.com/voxdotcom/status/989177228335419392 …

        One of the most damaging myths in our society is that "everybody is getting laid" in their late teens/early 20s. It's what leads these young misogynists to believe they "deserve" sex that they're not getting.

        The truth is that most people in their late teens/early 20s are not having sex on a regular, consistent basis. Some people are, but definitely not a majority. It's an awkward time for everyone.

        This idea that "everyone but me is having sex" is what drives these "incel" alt-right types to get so angry and violent, when the truth is that there's a lot more young people who are sexually frustrated than sexually satisfied.

        Pop culture and social media paint a picture that something's wrong with you if you're in your early 20s and not having a one-night stand w someone random every weekend. The truth is that maybe 10% of people are actually doing that. Maybe.

        No one wants to admit that they're not having sex, especially in their early 20s when all the peer pressure says that's exactly what everyone is doing, but it's a totally common experience.

        The irony is that the first step towards having an actual satisfying sex life is being able to be honest w yourself and others about your sexual experience, your desires, and the difficulty *we all experience* connecting with the opposite sex.

        If you're in your early 20s and you're sexually frustrated, just know this: Most of your peers are going through the same thing and there's nothing wrong with any of you.

        If people were more open about the distance between the "hook up culture" you see portrayed in the media and the actual sex lives of most young people, it'd be an important step towards ending these disgusting violent online misogynist movements.

        It really would be. And there are direct documented links between the old PUA forums on reddit/4chan and the new neo-nazi/pro-trump/incel forums today.

        It’s listed, but unavailable for viewing on Amazon. To watch it, there are episodes smattered across a bunch of different platforms.
