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?

    raised on the values of romantic success being a requirement for a non-failed life

    Literally having a conversation down thread with someone who thinks like this. It just mystifies me. I’m single by choice. I’m not asexual, I’m reasonably attractive. But I’ll tell you I learned the very hard way that romantic relationships will not just magically fill that empty hole in your heart. You gotta learn how to do that for yourself even if you’re married.
