Do incels really exist? It seems to me if you wanted to not be celibate, calling yourself an incel and announcing it to the world would be one of the worst ways to end your celibacy?
We live in a hypergamous age, where the top 20% of men keep an informal harem of 60% of the women. The 60% of the those women will not make themselves available to the so-called lesser men until the woman start to age out, at around 30 years of age.
The middle 60% of men, who don’t have much in the way of casual sex, have to share the bottom 40% of women. These are the women that are wanting to marry the middle 60% of men.
The bottom 20% of man have no hope of companionship at all. There are the incels. They are either unfortunate in the physical department, which they can’t change, and/or they never had strong male role models to learn from to increase their attractiveness through character.
It’s become a sub-culture onto itself, just like any other groups will form subcultures around those who share commonality with them.
Yeah they do exist, instead of being on the football team, they go into the basement, and play video games, and get mad that girls don't look at them.
Look up the tragic tale of Elliot Rodger: Santa Barbara Incel, Serial Killer from 2014. That’s how he described himself, and proudly so.
Celibate literally means—single. Unmarried.
Holy Mother Church is clear on this.
Everyone is to exercise “chastity” according to their state in life. This is true even married men, for whom chastity means, the marital union, with one’s wife, in such a way as to remain open to the procreation of children, and that, is, it.
Unmarried men, like priests, are to remain sexually “continent”. Find something else to do with yourself and stop trying to pursue a so-called “sex life”.
No pornographic materials, no self abuse, if you see “something”, don’t sweat it. Just look away. Custody of the eyes is key.
No, of course, you're right to be skeptical! Literally no man is involuntarily celibate.
They are either voluntarily celibate, or are practically drowning in p*ssy.
There are no lonely, 20-something (or older!) guys out there who have finally come, after countless rejections, to the realization that - often due to factors over which they have no control - are at the rock-bottom of the dating market.
