I keep seeing people try to rehab the word Incel online as a neutral term and I don’t understand it. It’s come to mean violent misogynist. Blablabla, it was originally coined by a woman, WE KNOW.
If you’re just a guy who isn’t a misogynist and is struggling to find a person to date, you’d say you’re currently single and looking, but it’s tough out there. Something like that. Hell, I doubt even devout terminally online incels actually self-identity as incels to people IRL because they know exactly what that word means to people should they recognize it.
Most of the time once someone has declared themselves a incel theyve committed to never changing their behavior. That is the inherent toxicity of it. If you cant self reflect and make changes then the damage is self inflicted.
Id say someone who is just generally unattractive and doesnt actually care about sex wont go as far to identify with incels.
Thanks for summarizing the past few years for me 🤣 (stopped following the news and the world around me a few years ago so I didn’t realize what the word had come to mean. Oh boi.)

The word has meant that for like a decade now did you live under a rock?
I just checked, but all I could find is that nobody likes you :(
Good for them. The feeling is mutual.
