Ross Dothan's NYTimes column about "The Redistribution of Sex" is a great example of why people who are not well-versed in sexuality as a field should not be writing about topics as fraught as incels and their violent demands of more sexual gratification from women.

I don't understand why the
@nytimes invested in a literal Gender Editor and is still letting op-eds that are tenuous at best and deeply damaging at worst like Ross Douthat's latest see the light of day.@jessicabennett, what do you think of this? Can you please write a response?Show this thread -
Hey media! Incels are the new Gamergate. Are you going to mess this up again? Are you going to laugh them off as a weird curiosity with valid ideas to explore, or are you going to recognize them as a hate movement that has *already* inspired multiple murders?

Why are men in media responding to an *actual murderer and misogynist terrorist* by talking about sex robots and wondering if nerds have a right to get laid? WHAT ARE YOU DOING. WAKE UP AND SMELL THE SEXISM. IT'S 2018. PEOPLE ARE DYING.

I don't want to hear any more opinions from men about incels unless it's an aggressive dismissal of their violent bullshit or an intelligent conversation about our broken, entitled sexual culture and mental health. In the mean time, I'm looking for literary representation.

People I want to read
#incel takes from: - sex workers, who are being suggested as a solution and shouldn't have to deal with these shit men as clients - men engaged in the work of fixing masculinity - women who have trouble getting laid and somehow manage to not be trash humans!Show this thread -
Do yourself a favor and read
@JessicaValenti's essay instead of that other one.https://twitter.com/JessicaValenti/status/991715443260973057 …Show this thread -
Not convinced
#incels are dangerous? Read this old reddit post suggesting how incels should be assigned (or "redistributed"
) women to sleep with by govt.
"Every time a woman sleeps with a new man, she loses one rank on her sexual-market value card."https://twitter.com/chick_in_kiev/status/990235360209915905 …

When I read about incels 3 weeks ago my position was that this level of hate towards women shames me as a man to my core.

Why do you only assume the negative with everything? 80% of your tweets are about how men should do this n that, you have zero right to tell anyone how to do anything with thier private lives, or you just generalize males as they are woman haters, when you're spewing false fatcs

These guys are a bloody menace, but it’s important to make an honest effort to understand what’s causing the problem rather than engaging in simplistic othering that reduces the problem to “they’re horrid”.

That begs the question. The hatred most likely comes from rejection, and a displaced self-loathing from feelings of inadequacy. This triggers a destructive self-reinforcing loop whereby they set up paranoid, self-serving narratives of all women being appalling etc.

Solving the problem is less important than punishing the guilty, I guess? You don't seem like the kind of person who'd push Republican viewpoints, but here we are...
