      If the welfare state should provide us only with enough to "not die," the welfare state needs to shrink dramatically. The welfare state is premised on ensuring dignity, not merely survival. Do you think people can maintain their dignity with no access to intimacy?

      Yes. Examples: monks, nuns, priests - just to name a few. Also, sex isn't the only form of intimacy.

      Monks, nuns, and priests all voluntarily give up sexual intimacy, so of course it doesn't impact their dignity.

      Well then you should voluntarily not put your dignity in whether or not you can get laid

      "You should voluntarily not put your dignity in whether you make $10 vs $15 an hour." After all, it's *possible* to survive on $10 an hour

      Replying to @NaffanDennison @SaintofSnark

      The point was that saying "if your dignity depends on getting laid that's your fault" ignores the fact that we need more than the bare minimum to survive in order to feel human. We're social creatures, and need companionship in order to feel whole. That's true even of incels

      Yes, we need companionship. But no one is entitled to sex. I understood your argument. I just don’t think it’s even remotely valid.

      I don't think you understand my argument. I'm not arguing that anyone is "owed" sex, because it would be an even more serious violation of dignity to make anyone have sex with anyone else. I'm arguing that we need to understand the incel problem as related to dignity
