Incels are members of an online culture\u00a0who label themselves as unable to find a sexual partner\u00a0despite wanting one (“Incels.co – Involuntary Celibate”, 2020).\u00a0Discussions in incel meetings\u00a0are often characterized by self-pity, resentment, racism, entitlement\u00a0to sex, and the endorsement of violence against sexually active people.<\/p>\n
Incels are mainly the male gender and are heterosexual and many sources report that incels are usually of the white race. Incels communities have been criticized by the media and for encouraging violence, spreading\u00a0and radicalizing\u00a0their members.\u00a0Discussions often point out to the belief that men are entitled to sex. Other common views include idleness, loneliness, unhappiness, suicide sexual surrogates and\u00a0prostitutes as well as other attributes they believe increase one’s desirability as a partner such as income or personality. Opposition to\u00a0women\u2019s rights\u00a0is commonplace. Some posters blame\u00a0women\u2019s liberation\u00a0for their inability to find a partner. <\/p>\n
Incels believe that there was a time where looks played less of a role in finding romance and men’s entitlement to sex with women was never denied. Self-identified incels are mostly described as young and friendless introverts. Media outlets portray incels as unemployed and living with parents. <\/p>\n
People who identify as incel have psychological disorders or such as depression, autism. Some visitors of incel forums attribute their inability to find a partner to physical or mental illness and others attribute it to extreme introversion. Incels engage in self-diagnosis\u00a0of mental health issues and often discourage posters who post about mental illness from seeing therapists or otherwise seeking treatment.<\/p>\n
\u00a0Rape culture is a sociological\u00a0concept for a setting in which\u00a0rape\u00a0is normalized\u00a0due to societal attitudes about sexuality and gender. Rape culture is commonly associated with slut shaming and victim blaming and sexual objectification. Pornographic\u00a0media is often attributed with showing aggressive behaviors and attitudes, supporting violence against women. <\/p>\n
Rape culture has been described as detrimental to both women and men (“Rape culture”, 2020). Rape is intrinsically linked to\u00a0gender roles\u00a0that limit male self-expression and cause psychological torture to men. Like when women emerge from their homebound roles and go to the workplace and other areas traditionally dominated by men and therefore increasing male insecurities this result in the male to use rape to suppress women. Rape culture is linked to environmental insecurities, where men see women as part of their struggle to control their immediate environment. It is also linked to gender segregation where it is used to prove male masculinity.<\/p>\n
