What do you guys actually define these terms as?

-Incel
-Truecel
-Volcel

The general meanings are obvious but they're slightly ambiguous. Here's how I define them.

Incel: A person who wanted sex for over a year and has tried to get it but can't, they have to be at least 18 years old.

Truecel: Same as an incel but never ever had sex or a partner

Volcel: Someone who can get sex but voluntarily are celibate


You can not be a virgin and still be an incel imo, I'm unfortunately a truecel by these definitions and a lot of you are. My real question is are you a volcel for not finding a woman attractive? We wouldn't call a straight man a volcel for not liking a man because he obviously doesn't find men attractive but if you dont find a landwhale attractive, doesn't that make you a volcel? Does her having a pussy make it impossible to be unattractive? For the idiots who will call this a greycel post or fakecel post hold your horses, I'm asking genuine questions bc I've been aware of these terms for years but noone actaully answers the questions. Is attraction a prerequisite to be considered a volcel? If so can we really call a " femcel" a volcel is she doesn't find most men attractive? It's a real question, I need to know what constitutes being a volcel, incel and truecel.

truecel is where you would need all the surgeries and maxxes and become billionaire to ascend

i think trucels are a subcat of incels tbh

That can also work, a trucel being someone who has litterally no chance of phyiscal improvements. That would mean it an extremely small set of the population. Like deformed people for sure are one
 
Incel: Can't get sex
Truecel: can't get sex, because he's extremely ugly
Volcel: Incels larping as Sigma Males (like M"G"TOW)

first two make sense but volcel is the opposite of an incel, it would mean someone who can get sex but are with holding for their own reasons
 
A person who wants romantic sex but can't get any. Timespan technically not specified, but obviously excludes stuff like "my girlfriend is at work, so I cannot fuck her, so I am an Incel", but also stuff like "my wife doesn't fuck me any more, that's why I am an incel". The latter is still sexlessness and bad, but still distinct from Inceldom.
Someone who is not only an incel, but also has absolutely no hope in changing that situation, for example a deformed guy. The difference is that some incels might reasonably believe that they have a chance to lose their inceldom some day while truecels don't.
Someone who can get reasonable romantic sex but chooses not to, for example because he is not attracted to her or he doesn't like her personality
 
i think truecel is someone who will never ascend whereas an incel might
 
My definitions would be

Incel: anyone who is denied by females and larger society for their appearance or traits out of control like mental illness

Trucel: an Incel whose matured and is familiar in the bp terminology and been in these spaces for more than 3 years, not partaking in soycity is a big one but some trucels could work to just survive (these are rare to be real trucels if they work but some oldcels like this exist it seems)

Volcel: this term can really be a lot of different people self described volcels are usually chads, who do the same stacy celibate larp for money or whatv, or it could be a fakecel whose had interactions with women irl (they will have sex eventually)

Would a man be a volcel for not smashing a gay dude because he doesn't find him attractive?

No, because gay sex is not "reasonable" as it's not your preferred sexual orientation. I even consider sex with a huge age gap not reasonable as it basically ensures that one person will be a widow (obviously if she is younger you are not affected so idk about how to judge it, but if she is much older you are). Also sex with someone with an STD is not reasonable to me etc.

You would be a volcel for refusing to have sex with a normal woman with masculine features though.

I mean what exactly is reasonable? From what I'm seeing it's just really bad partners, the STD one is understandable because it a health risk but for the other two it's just preferences for the sex aspect least. I'm not talking about relationships, only sexual intercourse. You are either attracted or not attracted to men, that would mean that inceldom would be based on attraction and by that logic it can be applied to "femcels" or chads waiting for a stacy or what ever. That's the tricky part for me personally, if you deny sex bc you think the age gap is weird that would make you a volcel correct? Just very slippery on this discussion

Sex with men is a fundamentally different type of sex than sex with women. It's not about attraction, it's about the type of sex. IMHO it's reasonable that a guy wants vaginal sex which is what people typically think of as sex and at the same time you simply cannot have with a man.

Age gap is probably debatable tbh

It's reasonable for a guy to reject an ugly bitch but we'd call him a fakecel, I feel like we know what's considered a fakecel or not in most cases but there's no actual line for this matter
