this is why I like working in the field. no devices for hours or days or weeks, you work with a crew digging up old dead peoples poo poo and at the end there are campfires and booze. it's da anti isolation.

this is hilariously wrong

most girls don't like to have their cervix repeatedly dick punched during sex and those are usually only at like 6" deep

in all honesty most women would get the same if not more pleasure out of a 5" penis than a 7" one die to the aforementioned cervix punching thing

really though, just double up on the oral sex since the vast majority of women are much more able to orgasm via clitoral stimulation than penetration

you've got a selection bias, incels are by definition The People Who Get Ignored On Those Services, And Are Unhappy so you're basically tautologically saying "unhappy people are less happy than people in general."

the core of it is the socialization/anxiety/awkwardness, whereas in the before times you'd just eventually sift down into a social strata with people like you and similar interests (AV club, D&D groups, w/e) that still had interaction with mixed company, now there's already an entire digital community with pillars of faith that speaks to your particular alienation and frustrations. it must feel like a soothing balm when people find this group, and then from there it's just maladaptive coping keeping them from addressing real problems.

Which means that attempts to attack the communities to try to solve the problem are just taking people's medicine away and telling them they need to get better. At best, it turns out destroying entire communities is hard guys, and at worst you justify their feelings of persecution and chase them into more fortified, more toxic communities.

Where else can people go to say "I'm ugly and broken and will always be alone" though? If that's a feeling they are desperate to express then no poo poo they're going to choose the only place available where they can be confident they'll be understood instead of mocked.

Therapy might be better but it's not like everyone has access to therapy, anonymously talking online is instant and less threatening too.

man, if any of y'all are actually incels and buying into that poo poo, go to a therapist and find out what's up with your self esteem

then try and meet some chicks or something, i'onno.

i'm a hideous goblin and i've managed to have my share of hookups and relationships by just being chill/funny

the bar is so loving low for dudes because of how god damned gross most are, for seriously, match with someone on tinder, chat them up and like, dig into your brains for some wit and charm, don't be overt, don't innuendo, and let her lead the progression w/r/t pants feelings and possible flirting and sex poo poo.

if you're not saying gross poo poo or hollering for nudes after the first hour, you're probably already half way to having a lunch date

cultivate a respect and appreciation for women as human beings and not as the things that go around your dick when you've tricked them enough

Literally google any phrase or whatever related to this and just put forum after it and you'll find countless results lol.

Oh, btw, the thing that's making you look like an insane moron here isn't the already crazy assertion that surely nothing in all the world exists for lonely male virgins to turn to.
No.
What makes you an insane moron is the subtext that seems to suggest you think there is anything positive about the incel community.
A community built around constantly repeated phrases like.... "only hope is the rope" and "it's over". Not to even get into the horrific misogyny. This is your idea of a thing that shouldn't be attacked because of the valuable service it apparently provides vulnerable depressed people.

A cult that turns vulernable depressed people into sexist Klan members who also constantly kill themselves and encourage eachother to kill themselves.
