It's the new "incel".

That one really did come out of nowhere. I obviously don't want to downplay terrorist attacks but there was a high-profile incel attack in Toronto and suddenly the entire internet world was dunking on this tiny and fringe collection of dudes. It also really doesn't make sense that women use it either. It's a strange world where women are basically saying "You don't fuck enough puss" to guys on the internet.

“Incel” doesn’t just refer to men who “don’t fuck enough puss” though but to a specific subgroup of men who cannot get laid because of their horrible personality, blame this on everyone but themselves and think women owe them sex. They also support rape.

That’s a big difference.

I mean you can flower up the language all you want but it's women accusing men of "not being able to attract/get women". That's a pretty weird thing for slur a man on. We're reaching 3D Chess levels of female objectification I didn't even think possible.

I will grant you that some people do use the word in the way you're describing and do mean it with the proper intention but it's the new "cuck". It's just so watered down that it means next to nothing. If you're simply mean to a girl on Twitter you're a "incel". It means nothing. "Simp" is also rapidly approaching saturation in the same way but the mirror opposite.

Nah, it's really not. I obviously cannot speak for ALL women, but most who use it know very well what it actually means. Not men who cannot get laid or "don't have enough sex" (most women quite frankly do not give a crap about how much sex men have they are not dating). But the horrible type of man who advocates for "government-issued females", glorifies rape and thinks that all women are horrible and shallow and don't fuck them because their elbow-to-arm-ratio is off (or something equally weirdly specific).

If you use it in it's proper context and you advocate for that I'm happy for you but I have no idea what social media platform you're on because I see it abused constantly. There's a reason "Yikes. Found the incel" is a meme at this point.

I'm a woman and I got called an incel by a fifteen year old boy for saying it's lazy content when girls stream on Twitch just reacting to Youtube videos in lowcut tops :/

Yeah, "incel" definitely exists and it is definitely a thing but the way it gets thrown around on Twitter is ridiculous. It's the new "cuck" and fighting with "simp" for unbelievable amounts of saturation.
