      Those w/ less access to sex plausibly suffer simiarly to those with low income, & might similarly hope to organize to lobby for redistribution along this axis. Strikingly, I see little overlap between those concerned about income & sex inequality. http://www.overcomingbias.com/2018/04/two-types-of-envy.html …

      What I find interesting about this-- well, "interesting"-- is that there are PLENTY of female wallflowers in the world who are regularly judged/mocked for their looks... and yet we're not rising up in rebellion over lack of dates.

      They quite literally do not believe any woman can be an incel (a queer woman invented the word, much like two transwomen invented the concept of “the red pill”) because women supposedly can have sex whenever they want. God I hate that I know this shit.

          Wow... we can have sex whenever we want? Golly, I missed the memo! *shakes head* I can't believe this is even a thing. Well... yes, I can. God, I hate our entitled society sometimes.

          They also really hate makeup because it’s lying to make ourselves look better. They’re obsessed with ranking people’s looks, and makeup apparently makes all women look like 10s which is false advertising and they want to outlaw it but also men can’t wear it because reasons

          Every Twitter thread should end in this gif. But I ❤️ Malcolm Reynolds, so maybe I am just prejudiced 🤷🏽‍♀️

          I suppose theoretically, a woman who is involuntarily celibate and into men sort of "can't exist" because they could go have sex with a man who is into women and involuntarily celibate and they'd both stop being incels.
