Why do men get called "incel" for staying chaste?
throughout history, women have been praised for keeping their chastity safe. But nowadays, some groups criticize men who don't want casual relationships and prioritize their chastity. They label these men as "incels."

Why can't they just respect men's choices? Why is it so bad for men to stay chaste?

Nonsense. No matter how bad their attitude towards women may be, there will be some women who click with that.

As far as I'm concerned "incel" is simply a slur used by wokies and doesn't actually hold much water. It's part of feminism and a way to look down on men.

If you really think that women are so bad why you obsessively want one? If you reallly want a woman then how can you have such a low opinion about them? They don't make any sense.

I don't think it is. It's just the battle of the sexes, similar to how any person might complain about the opposite gender after a breakup. These people are just more stuck in it. The woke do not seem to acknowledge that such a battle even exists, but will always call it "misogyny" simply because it fits their agenda. Funnily enough, that is probably just a symptom of the same battle.

It can happen. And then they can't find anyone and then they are incel again.

if they reproduce they're not incel. sex happened.

Well you can't know if they are ever going to, can you? They might be bad at dating but they can find partners in other ways. Happens all the time.

It's a term used by reptilians to in which they worship a large dragon that waits to eat unborn children.

Misandry and femcels exist today, but the woke and feminists dismiss all of them.

To me, the outstanding characteristic of an "incel" is someone who feels rejected by others, but feels "entitled" to someone. Which is weird.

It's a fairly derogatory term, especially when you consider women can also fall into the same category.

Being celibate is something different.

Incel is an acrónimo the entire time??!
A portmeanteau. 👌

How can you know you don't like sex unless someone tricks you into biting the apple?

"I'm a victim and deserve anything, because my wrong Justifies me to do or demand any action be taken."

Victim mentality. Its not unique to this group.

The rejection and mistreatment by society is the crime.

Another Idea I tie to it is "Tyranny of the weak" Such as where prisoners take over a prison where they were mistreated. Then hurt the officers far worse than they ever were, and feel not remorse because it was "Justified"

Personally I find Victim mentally very interesting As it can ruin a persons entire life. Because you can be hateful to those who might help you. And ungrateful to any help you do get "I deserve this! And more!" Like a person with it can want other people to give them free money forever, and take no responsibility for wasting the money they already got.

Or they may use it to justify death, or even genocide.

Victim mentality is like your eyes have turned red and the devil controls your soul. For you may act inhumane since you believe you deserve everything. Like no free money today? I deserve to riot and destroy stores.

What all the stores moved out? Those awful stores! I'm the Victim!

It can never end. every problem you create for yourself, is a new thing to blame.

It varies from culture to culture.

Under the arranged marriage system in other countries, men are typically virgins when they marry and stay with the same woman.

Western culture has become very promiscuous and it is facing a birth rate crisis that they aren't facing in the global south.

This is mainly because the traditional family archetype has been deconstructed.

cause internet is stupid.

still.. incel means involentaire celibate.
if you are chaste you just want no sex till marriage.
If you cant find a woman willing to marry , than in a way you are also incel.

(which is a thing today cause woman screw around more.. but are far less likely to tie the knot.. thus thus is actuall harder than it used to especially if you want a chaste woman too)

I may be a chaste christian... but I always wanted to marry at 21 start a family at 23.. here I am 41.... single..
so.. there's that..
