As I said in my post, redistribution of sex doesn't have to take the form of coercing women's bodies, it could be cash transfers to those with less sex. And violent men could be excluded from such programs.

May I also just point out that it's the phrase "doesn't have to" that's so morally repugnant. Like, really, really disturbing.

If you try that hard to be offended, yeah you can probably succeed.

Robin, one doesn't need to "try" to be offended. Talking about women like they're pieces of meat to be passed around by men is, from the perspective of virtually any moral theory, shockingly ethically wrong. (Talk about "offense" is a red herring here.)

There is simply no parallel whatsoever to "redistributing" women's bodies (or giving men cash in lieu of this) and redistributing wealth. Again, the % of women virgins and men virgins is roughly the same. Yet male privilege... [folks can complete the sentence!].

My post was not about men in particular, it was about sex in general, for both men and women.

A reasonable interpretation is that you're talking about men not getting enough sex from women; you explicitly and only reference incel. Even more, so far as I can tell, this is how just about everyone commenting also interpreted your point, which suggests could have been clearer

Also, comments like this seem to affirm that your issue is, indeed, with men not getting the sex they want from women, since incel is overwhelmingly a male-dominated movement. Yes, I'm reading your words quite literally here.pic.twitter.com/GACZCjHj0T

"incel" is literally not about men in particular, it applies to both men and women.

Right, but (a) your example involves a man, (b) incel is overwhelmingly dominated by men (I'm sure you're aware of this), and (c) virtually everyone commenting on your post, so far as I can tell, also interpreted your comments in terms of sexless men, not women.

Are you refusing to allow me to clarify my meaning? Do you insist that you know what I meant better than I do?

Not refusing at all! Just explaining why pretty much everyone thinks you were talking about women as amoral objects.
