Is it wrong to ask why the incels can't just have sex with each other?
-

There's always the third category of those who self-identify with the label. But I mention that only in the interest of being comprehensive.
-
That's the most interesting data point to me! Those who not only have this thing, but consider it a part of their identity.
-
Certainly that they unite around this as a political cause is interesting. But frustrating because their cause appears to involve insisting that no women experience what they do, which, no.
-
Where I keep getting stuck on this: if "incel" (self-id'd) is just the new-ish term for men who want women who don't want them (all the while ignoring those who do), how is this a group to pity?
-
It's not.
-
But it keeps getting presented (https://www.thedailybeast.com/sympathy-for-the-incel …) as men who truly can't find sex. Which is a v. different situation than, 'supermodels won't date me, thus life is unfair'
-
I don't have a whole lot of sympathy for the sexless as a class (and especially those who identify), though there are enough that I think are just in a bad situation I don't write them off. The same applies, except moreso, to women left out.
-
The "moreso" in large part because I don't *understand* why some of the women were left out. The guys... yeah, I can point to this trait or that trait, high expectations or an annoying personality or crippling social phobia. My wife's friends? Perplexing.

I thought it was even more than that, because not only will no one sleep with you, but there's a victimhood and entitlement attitude to it as well.
