Something I’ve always wondered is what kind of women were in the lives of incel men when they were young. Did they have a bad relationship with their mother? Did they lack sisters or other female family members? Or is their family situation irrelevant? Maybe some particular situation in their early years caused them to develop a complex around women?

    I hope you realize that this very message of yours is asking men to man up and stop complaining. You are hereby promoting toxic masculinity.

      Lmfao, if you’re not capable of seeing the gulf of difference between “hey man, never express any emotion ever” and “hey adult, take some responsibility for your feelings and work on yourself” then I can’t help you.

        I don’t need the help of someone who doesn’t want to understand.

        And you know what? That’s exactly the problem incels face: the only people trying to help them are like them, so mostly unable to help, and fascists, your enemy and mine.

        But keep growing the ranks of your enemies. It’s not like if fascism was at our doorsteps…

          Excuse me? I have to save “incels” or the fascists will win? What is this nonsense?

          Incel is not a word I would ever use to describe even one individual, let alone an entire group. You know why? Because I have more respect for people than that. Maybe you should too.

          You literally said “men are helpless” and yes, you are correct that I am unable to help anyone who claims that they are helpless.

            When you respect people, you try to understand them. You are not doing that here. You are merely bitching, offended that I, a man, dared to criticise feminism.
