      It seems that violence in response to “low access to sex” or maybe the “high costs to convince a woman to have sex with you” was very much norm before the advent of strong central governments that could put an end to that threat of violence.https://www.economist.com/news/christmas-specials/21732695-plural-marriage-bred-inequality-begets-violence-link-between-polygamy-and-war …

      Do you think that the concept of “low access to sex” is necessarily patriarchical? For example, I think that individuals with HIV have lower access to sex than the general population and this predicament could be addressed by government policies.

      That public health (rather than market economics) tack is also proposed by those who want to inoculate the sexually deprived against violence by prescribing & distributing sex. It's not the concept of "low access" that's patriarchal, it's the women-commodifying solutions.

      How about government policies that promote long term monogamous relationships or University policies that try to keep the hetero male-female ratio roughly equal?

      University policies are doing a terrible job at that last one! Most student populations are at least 60-40 skewed female, if not more. While qualified men are prized, there doesn't seem to be a "matching problem" at work here.

      Dr Donna Bowman Retweeted ella dawson

      Also as Ella points out in this thread, the incel claim is that women are unfairly and fraudulently bagging men above their market value, meaning less desirable are stuck with a pool of even more undesirable women. They want non-voluntary matching.https://twitter.com/brosandprose/status/991704624234188802 …

      Ross Douthat makes a grave mistake taking incels at their word that they can't get laid and conflating them with marginalized groups considered unattractive for bigoted reasons. Incels could get laid if they didn't hate women and feel entitled to *hot* women.

          I don’t want to be thrown into the incel crowd because I really think it’s not that hard to figure out what women want. These incel guys seem to be unwilling to change the worst parts of themselves in order to make themselves more appealing.

          It is true that feminism created new hierarchies and romantic rules. And that means that a larger number of men who hate women so much they fantasize about killing us if we don’t sleep with them will go un-laid. I am so happy for feminism to take responsibility for that.

          Oh this is extremely relevant. So much of feminism’s project has been to redistribute sex through changes in matching mechanisms, for example the option for women to divorce when they want. This redistribution does end up with some men not getting what they could have got.

          Of course some of these men will find it preferable to argue against feminism, probably the biggest and most powerful source of the redistribution of sex in western society.
