Cringe moment is that when I was like 16 or 17, I too, identified with being an incel - I mean, I WAS INvoluntarily CELibate. So I browsed their subreddit for a while.
I quickly realized that those were guys who were not just involuntarily celibate. They all hated women.

It’s odd to me how you start by saying ‘incel = woman hater’, then showcase having the self awareness to recognize being involuntarily celibate without hating women, then loop back around to ‘incel = woman hater’.

There’s nothing wrong with being a virgin, but the term incel has more connotations than “involuntary celebrate.”

Exactly my point.

It’s the exact opposite of your point actually, thanks for playing, though

It’s just that they’ve adopted the label.
You could say you’re a fan of national socialism, but when you realize what people who refer to themselves as national socialists are, I don’t think you’ll want to use that label on yourself anymore.
