The aversion to coping is like the relatively modern aversion to "settling" but a million times worse.

Koyaanisgoatse posted:countdown until the incels think that wearing rompers is the new chad thing to do Excuse you, they are rompims when worn by men. Because that renaming is a thing that must be done because fragile masculinity. Just like man buns. But really rompers are terrible and should not be worn by anyone who is not a literal toddler.

Literally A Person posted:I would argue that this transcends gender. All of us have been told that we need to be barbie and ken. It's rough sometimes because quite often dudes won't even get that kinda poo poo out in the air for fear of being stigmatized. Male body image issues are also in kind of a weird place because bringing it up can lead to pushback that it is trying to downplay an issue that disproportionately affects women. Which is a fair thing to say because there are people who actually do try to bring it up for that exact purpose.

Literally A Person posted:One other thing from your post: On the subject of media portrayals of masculinity, I am guessing this is more likely me just noticing it more, but it seems like male-focused advertising and product/service naming has gotten more prevalent and stupid of late. Like if it's intended for men some service needs to be "executive" or prefaced with man-, or like soap needs to be tough and aggressive and annihilates dirt or stuff like that. It's soap! It's like >99% identical to soap marketed to women, it just smells worse. But that's just fragile masculinity for you. To relate it to incels, they absolutely are heavily influenced by media masculinity, but there's no way they'd ever find anything that seriously discusses it because that's basically feminist literature. chumbler fucked around with this message at 19:03 on Aug 6, 2017 |

Literally A Person posted:As a duder, I will say that it can be kinda hard to figure out what is masculine in a pretty rapidly changing societal landscape. This kind of poo poo is just trying to keep us trapped in the same circular logic about masculinity we have been in for years. One, much like the logic women are trapped in, that leaves us with little choice of how to interact with society at large. I am also a duder for the record. But yeah, even the weak attempts to "rebrand" masculinity are still laser focused on framing everything around strength and individuality which really fixes nothing. At the very least defining masculinity in part around self destructive things like alcohol or jobs nobody should be doing or should at least be done more safely needs to go away.

Ghostlight posted:Media plays a huge part in that. I remember I thought I was 'behind' at the age of 17 and that was entirely because while at school my peers dating seemed to just be them hanging out together during lunch, movies and television were showing me that there was no line between that kind of dating and getting drunk at a party and banging. The reality is that some of them may have, but probably for most it was just like second-base before they broke up and started hanging out with someone else. The reality I had in my head of what everyone else was doing when I didn't see them was that of American teen movies so even if my friends did lie to make themselves seem more experienced I would've just thought they were downplaying what actually happened for my benefit. That was all pre-internet too. If you'd ask them they'd claim they're too smart to be passively influenced by the media, without realizing they've directly defined their lives by it.

Incels, or anyone really but most probably already do it by default, at bare minimum need to sit down with themselves and ask the question "Would you be interested in you?" If the answer is no (which it is), then your options are either change to make it a yes, or accept that you're going to be alone. Plenty of people do the latter, but you still have to reach an answer to that question.

SaltyJesus posted:Heh. What when the answer is "I barely manage to live with myself" but other people are interested? I seem to be well liked at work; I keep fit and in the past two months I've received compliments on my hair and clothes from a friend, a neighbor, and some colleagues on different occasions so I know I'm not a cave troll (though one of the first things I did when I moved into this apartment is to throw out the only wall mirror and buy a small one that I can put away so I don't have to look at myself when not necessary); I'm well traveled and I've picked up a few conventionally attractive hobbies (foreign languages, guitar, cooking - I occasionally get complimented on those too, or asked for help translating / to prepare a dish for events etc.) before I realized that all the self-improvement in the world won't regrow whatever piece of my soul atrophied long ago. I still work hard to get better at all of it but mostly for my own satisfaction and some lingering, mistaken sense that simply getting better at stuff so people are "interested in me" means anything when I can barely bring myself to talk to people outside of professional situations or being office-sociable. You sound just uninterested in relationships then, which is fine. I'm not really seeing the issue here.

I am guessing probably the majority are privileged white people, and isn't the minecraft guy basically a rich incel? Aside from that there also seems to be a huge amount of internalized racism among those who have said they aren't white. None of that sets foot in incel territory without a heaping helping of misogyny as a defining trait, though. Also, regarding the "even x socially undesirable person can get a partner and I can't" thing, what a person does with it depends on personality. Some take it as a call to better themselves, but a lot just see it as an indictment of how much they suck and should just give up. Incels take it to blaming Stacies and Chads.

Brother Entropy posted:it's incredible how much internet porn has hosed up how these guys think the world works They're just the most extreme case, but porn is definitely affecting everyone. Not even just porn but increasingly normal television as well. There's nothing wrong with showing healthy sex lives, but for an increasingly isolated population, seeing the TV people getting laid constantly can lead to them feeling like there's something wrong with them (not referring to incels here.)

Yeah they're a group of people who define themselves by being outcasts, and as that is the only identity they feel, they can't stand any threat to it. Also they're misogynists and deeply fear women.
