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.

Our response to incels should NOT be a thought experiment about sex robots + government sex redistribution programs. It should be a blistering disavowal of their violent, misogynist worldview, and a conversation about creating a healthier, more respectful sexual culture for all.

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 think we do have a right to a healthy sex life: to access to sexual healthcare, to a society free of sexual shame. But we do not have a right to other peoples' bodies, and that's what the incels believe. They don't feel entitled to sexual pleasure, they feel entitled to women.

They feel entitled to certain women. They feel other women are beneath them.

How do you come to these conclusions? When I read through the reddit/incel page, I just see people who did everything perfectly, but get scolded for it.

Anyone describing themselves as Incel are focused on the act not the relationship. Sex is not a commodity. You can't do everything right & earn sex. No one deserves sex. It's an activity between 2 adults. People who want sex need to work on themselves not blame others. #incels
