      Those w/ less access to sex plausibly suffer simiarly to those with low income, & might similarly hope to organize to lobby for redistribution along this axis. Strikingly, I see little overlap between those concerned about income & sex inequality. http://www.overcomingbias.com/2018/04/two-types-of-envy.html …

      If you’ve looked at the flat-out psychopathic and violent drivel on the incel forums at all, you would have to conclude that what they’re lacking isn’t sex, it’s any sense of empathy or perspective. Redistribute those if you can.

          I'm not focused on the people who post in such forums. I'm focused on overall sex inequality in the world.

          I’ve had a think about this claim of yours. If you’re focused on helping peaceful, rational, non-violent advocates of sex redistribution, then you have a very small constituency. It might be just be you.

          The issue is more about whether and how much to help the ordinary people, not the advocates.

          This response comes across as disingenuous. 1. You object when people see you as arguing for rape and slavery. But you entered this debate explicitly naming the incel movement, which does advocate those things, and your post does not rule out those “solutions”.

          I've made it very clear that I'm mainly interested in the key issue raised, not in the mood, ability, or virtues of one movement. If I'm not making proposals, why need I rule on them?

          You don’t need to rule on them but it is pointless to avoid considering them; they frame the current conversation, as your post acknowledges.

          Oh hang on, you’re asking why you need to rule on whether rape and slavery are acceptable proposals? Wow. I’s because if you do accept those ideas as reasonable, you’re not worth talking to. People need to make judgements about who to bother with, our attention isn’t infinite.

          I blocked him altogether several days ago, based on his concept of "gentle rape, which is no less vIle than "lighthearted genocide."
