If you’ve been on the internet long enough, you’ve probably seen a lot of incels making asinine arguments that essentially boil down to the following:
- I can never get a girlfriend because women only like tall, handsome white men who make at least six figures, and I am none of those things.
- Only the best-looking men have a chance at getting laid or finding love.
- Attraction has nothing to do with personality or senses other than sight because that’s how I experience attraction and therefore it is the only way it can ever work.
- Women refuse to f**k me so therefore they are evil or stupid or something. Of course it has nothing to do with the fact that I’m a miserable misogynist who never bothered learning how to flirt the right way.
The reason incels keep getting stuck in these incorrect thought patterns is that their experience of reality is limited by their own fearful avoidance.
