Yeah no, fuck that shit. Not going to be lectured about how we should handle woman haters with kid gloves because they can’t handle rejection.
Like holy shit apparently getting rejected is only hard for cis men and it’s really fucking important. Guess what, it sucks for women just as much. Women get rejected too, but no one cares. Hell, no one even believes it because that sexism runs deep. Wait, actually no it sucks more for women because dating isn’t just putting your pride on the line, it’s risking assault and verbal abuse everytime too. Oh but on top of that they get to hear from incels (and the media) about how easy it is for women to date. But again, no one gives a shit, because they’re women, so who cares.
Meanwhile everywhere you look the media is discussing “Oh these poor frustrated young men. What a crisis. Oh those mean feminists! What do we do?” Because shit that’s just silently accepted as normal for everyone else to go through is apparently a crisis if it happens to a cis dude.
I’m not going to accommodate a scratched misogynist any more than I would a scratched liberal.
They don’t even know that the word incel was literally coined to describe a woman’s experience. It’s aggravating
The real tragedy behind the whole “incel phenomenon” is really this. It is not a surprise that there is a growing loneliness in people living under late-stage capitalism or that as patriarchy gets dismantled that there is a growing portion of people for whom the patriarchal norms of dating and relationships just no longer work and who are struggling as new forms of relationships only very slowly begin to form. That an originally inclusive community gets so completely taken over by these miserable misogynistic forces is just simply terrible and tragic, but sadly also not particularly surprising, considering the way basically everything else in the world is going.
Wait till you hear what incels think about “femcels”
