      It's not that it's "easier" for women to get laid (as incel men all seem to think). The difference is that men are taught that the world owes them sex and love, and women are taught that sex and love are a reward you get for shaping yourself into someone worthy of love.

      After the Elliot Rodger shooting I wrote a piece about this for Nerve (it's since been scrubbed from the internet along with all the rest of Nerve but lives on on http://archive.org : https://web.archive.org/web/20140602101212/http://www.nerve.com:80/love-sex/true-stories/confessions-of-an-awkward-teen-girl …)

      The more we erase the stories and experiences of lonely women who feel unattractive, unloveable, and undateable, the more we prop up the bullshit rhetoric of the "wronged man" that fuels these mass murdering assholes.

      Just a heads up it looks like I may be writing a piece about this topic, so if you're a woman (or, really, just not a straight cis man) who has had an extended period of feeling unfuckable/undateable/"involuntarily celibate" and wants to share your story, pls DM/email me.

      Also, just some points of reference: Elliot Rodger was *22* when he went on his shooting spree. Alek Minassian was *25*. Do you know how many people I know who didn't date or have sex until their late twenties or even thirties? Because... it's not a small number.

      An addendum just to address some of the comments I've seen in response to this thread: I think it's important to acknowledge that when people of any gender say, "No one will ever have sex with me" what they're usually expressing is a *feeling*, not a fact.

      Because, if we want to look at facts, pretty much anyone can find *someone* to have sex with if just having sex is their priority (that's kind of the point of sex work). But people aren't actually saying, "It's a complete impossibility that my genitals will touch someone else's."

      What they're saying is that, "I cannot get access to sex under the terms that I deem acceptable and 'normal.'" Maybe that means, "No one I like likes me back," or "Women will not submit to me just because I say they're pretty."

      But generally speaking it's a sense of disconnect between the reality of sex and dating and our fantasy of how it should unfold. And that sense of disconnect, that *feeling*, is pretty universal across genders.

      Have you ever tried to go on an incel forum and give the lads relationship advice? I have. It's remarkably weird, sad and inutile. They do not want to believe anything a woman can say, and they're so fragile they make me want to reflexively rock and moan.

          Oh, just watching from afar was enough for me — and yeah, I believe they're likely impossible to get through to. Can't help someone who doesn't really want to be helped!

          But when I am fragile, I stay home and inhale chocolate, and when some DMBs are fragile, they think it's okay to kill women and the people standing close to women.
