      The public recognition of the violent misogyny of “incels” has got me thinking about the ways that we define extremism. Because while incels are cartoonishly repugnant, their views are the logical endpoint of sexist attitudes that we consider mainstream.

      In particular, I'm thinking about how "incels" are disappointed with what they feel are the insufficient rewards of patriarchy, and how they understand that disappointment as oppression.

      I've wondered for a while about why patriarchy confuses the *denial of rewards* to men as the *oppression* of men.https://twitter.com/MoiraDonegan/status/981990689511624704 …

      Moira Donegan added,

      Moira Donegan @MoiraDonegan
      Another thing to investigate is the rhetoric that equates of the *denial of rewards* to misogynists with their murder or imprisonment. "How many times does he have to die?" "Why are you calling for his head?" etc. https://twitter.com/nycsouthpaw/status/981985912635756544 …

      The lesbian feminist theorist Marilyn Frye dismantled this reasoning pretty handily in her 1983 essay "Oppression." http://www.filosoficas.unam.mx/docs/327/files/Marilyn%20Frye,%20Oppression.pdf …

      But what's not detailed in that essay is the tendency, pronounced by incels but not exclusive to them, to understand intercourse with women as a "human right" for men, somewhat akin to food and shelter.

      I also think often of the role of vulnerability here. We socialize our males to avoid being vulnerable at nearly all costs. But sex, if it's going to be the least bit enjoyable, requires vulnerability from us.

      If my only source of vulnerable connection seemed entirely dependent on another human being, I'd be terrified and eventually pretty furious, too.

      The term was new to me, but the quickening of the incel self-identity—driven by loneliness—may’ve occurred in porn website echo chambers. Young men bombarded themselves with images/narratives that affirmed the ubiquity of mythic, willing sex objects for which they were entitled.

          I can't imagine that not being related.

          Your mention of vulnerability distilled thoughts I had on encounters with probable incels who obsessed about ephemeral/imagined relationships with ‘ghosting’ women. They also expressed solidarity with 4chan-ers. At their core, they were preoccupied with experiencing intimacy.

          Ah I'm really glad that resonated like that. And the 4chan connection makes sense! That particular flavor of protectiveness seems to be very common there, too.
