Obviously I can understand why mysoginists are hated upon, As their belief is all women are trash or men are superior etc. But why are incels also generally hated upon? They are lacking in a way that makes them unable to gey in a relationship, but that shouldn’t necessarily mean they are mysoginists, right?

What am I missing here? I haven’t ever had a relationship with a woman, but I don’t hate all women either. I just consider myself unlucky. Does that make me an incel?

    I know plenty of people who make this same argument for why whites can’t trust blacks. Those people are called racists. People who make the argument you’re making are called sexists.

      No you don’t. Because there isn’t a preponderance of evidence than black people are less trustworthy than non-POC.

      Just because an argument sounds similar does not make it the same.

        That is true, but is not a universally held belief. Many strongly feel that black people are inherently dangerous and untrustworthy. Others feel the same about Muslims. Or Chinese. Or Russians. Or Jewish people. Or Gypsies.

        People who feel that way about those groups are called bigots. You feel that way about men which means you are also a bigot. Not a difficult analysis.

      ^false equivalency. Sexists hate men (or women) on principle. That’s not what this concept is. You’d know that if you paid attention just a little bit

        Treating someone negatively or positively on the basis of their sex is sexism.

            Treating someone differently on the basis of sex is sexism. Treating someone differently on the basis of race is racism. This isn’t hard
