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?

Bottom line, ignore the usual haters who expect you to conform to their worldview. If you choose not to engage in sexual activity,there is nothing wrong with you. If anything, you have my respect for not engaging in hookup culture like most others nowadays and for being capable of such restraint. Take one good look at the people who sleep around (especially women) and tell me they look happy and fulfilled to you.
it's hard to spot anyone happy in general. the last time i saw a happily married couple was in 2008...

that's cuz of the horrible marriage laws

These laws have not changed in decades, they have been the same even for boomers, so that makes no sense... :steambored:

And how can that possibly be true if that type of content it's auto-banned in the platforms in opposition to the woman content that literally talk about killing all males, or aborting male babies, or even how to manipulate and divorce rape man?
It seems to me you are very factious and not intelectually honest....It's almost like you have an agenda here.

I've yet to see women who go on killing rampage because they can't find a guy to have sex with.

Several Incels on the other hand have done this exact thing. Elliot Rodgers wasn't the only case, there have been others.

Have you heard about research papers or news websites? You can't sustain your claim because it's a lie, you don't get instabanned.

Sure, I just made a simple google search, clicked on the news category and it showed me the next article
https://phys.org/news/2023-10-highlights-role-tiktok-videos-violence.html

If you don't trust the site you can read the research they are linking in the page
The funny part is that the purpose of Corporate social media is to increase "engagement time", by making it highly addictive, no matter the consequences or collateral damage it might cause as a whole ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And even funnier part that's just the tip of the iceberg, because it can be further weaponized as per usual :steamlaughcry:

Because too many folk either like to change what words mean or too lazy to find more fitting words.

Incel means to be involuntary celibate.

If the person is celibate on purpose then it is grammatically incorrect to call them incel.

I wonder if it's because those women probably don't exist.

oh I know plenty of happely married couples.. my parents were together for over 50 years.... my elder brothers have been married nearly 2 decades.. most my friends.. my age also 15-20 years..

it's just me who is the lonely one... for now... I still hope that faith will change.. but I do hope it happens soon enough to still have a family... I mean 41 to start a family.. is still possible.. but it should not take another decade before I find the one..

Incels are NOT men that want to stay single.

Incels are men who are single but want to get into a sexual relationship, and blame the fact they cannot get into a sexual relationship in everyone except themselves, especially women and sexually active men.

Nothing wrong with a desire to be single, lots of men - and women - do not want to marry or date.

Of course that's wrong, men are expected to act on the world, to bed women is conquest and thus on some level respected.

Women are not respected because being a slore is easy and is simply a mark of bad character.

Evolutionary dynamics have evolved through millions of years, it goes beyond thought, the logic is embedded in nature.

I like the word nonogamy

The choice to remain single and unmarried by someone's own free will, and the unwillingness to enter a relationship.
