    It’s like us men are immune to trauma and if we bring up any valid concerns or criticism, it’s either we’re incels or homosexual.

    Our society and the double standards we place on ourselves as men or women is absolutely ridiculous.

    It’s incel to think you believe you’re the shit and why isn’t any woman coming to you. That’s incel thought.

    Dealing with depression, lack of job opportunities, isolation among men as society pushes us to keep our emotions on the backburner, etc. aren’t incels, it’s whats happening with men right now. Men have little to no support group compared to women and for that, I am envious.

    As a dad:

    I get weird looks when I’m with my child, am told “doing daddy duty huh” when I’m more involved than his mother, am expected to be stoic, can’t sit at the bench to waych my child play as some other individual will think I’m a creep as I’m a single dad, can’t wear dope/unique patterns due to others perception of it being “flamboyant” while women will compliment other women for what they got on.

    Toxic masculinity is intertwined with incels and it’s absolutely rampant in society.

      stop caring about what other people think. hard to do sometimes but worth it. wear the bright colors, watch your kids, stand up for yourself and take up your space. fuck haters and people who live in the worried thoughts inside their head.

          You are kidding me, right? You know I can see the prices skyrocket, right? I can see them live.

          America has gone AWOL and is selling random people to slave camps.

          Russia is winning in Ukraine thanks to America’s betrayal, and European cowardice.

          Europe is dumping all of it’s cash into weapons, and being veto-blocked by hungary. That’s less money going to citizens.

          We might have to deal with a USA/RUSSIA alliance againast the world.

          And AI is getting close to being able to improve itself, leading to the singularity replacing us all.
