Femcels are the truest form of incels
Gen Z is having less sex. Between the pandemic’s legacy and a harsh political climate, articles tackling the matter frame this as a choice. But, what about the ladies who struggle to, or simply cannot, get laid?

I wouldn’t say I’m ashamed to be a ‘femcel’ but ‘chronically single’ isn’t something I’d want tattooed on my forehead. But, I, among many others in the community, are tired of being constantly misunderstood.
I’ve been called a ‘misandrist’, an ‘extremist’, and even a ‘misogynist’ for being active in femcel forums. I’m here to say that they couldn’t be more wrong. All I am is a woman unlucky in love.
Actually, I’d argue that femcels are the truest form of incel.
In a survey I posted on r/FemcelHub, I asked if anyone had experienced a particularly painful romantic rejection. One responder confessed that a self-proclaimed “incel” suffering from a porn addiction rejected her advances. Another recalled a time where she felt she found a man who was from a similar ethnic background, was just as neurodivergent, nerdy and “unattractive”, as her, just for him to favour a “white, blonde, popular, and attractive girl”. These women recognised that they were not owed romance from these men, but questioned how patriarchy has warped their dating attitudes. Moreover, several women opened up about how not being conventionally attractive hinders their dating journeys, one even opening up about how they felt as if getting plastic surgery “would make everyone's day nicer [due to] having a more pleasant face.” Despite this, women are frequently told to “give him a chance” even if she isn’t attracted to him.

According to the nasty Reddit male incels, I could “easily find a man on Tinder”. My dating app experience has ranged from dull to dangerous. I was ghosted by women and men on Bumble, asked what colour my underwear was on Tinder, and I had a particularly irksome experience on Hinge, encountering a Tommy Robinson supporter and someone who within one conversation revealed that he was eager to ‘smack me’ whilst I was blindfolded. Across all apps there seemed to be an affinity for “slightly autistic girls” (No, Daniel, that is not how autism works.)
Putting myself at risk wasn't worth the shag. This is an experience that has been widely discussed among femcels who feel that our only options for sex are to play into degradation from creeps or not have sex at all.
With the majority of my friends in happy relationships and dating gossip as integral to the communities I’ve found myself in, r/FemcelHub became a safe haven from all things smutty to romantic.
JFL, how does the term incel being coined first by a woman disprove the fact that femcel orientated subs have literally shut down/went private in the past because so many users were getting messages from desperate simps? And how does that survey mean anything when I guarantee you just about every single testimony submitted is a LARP? The very fact that you were given attention on apps shows your made-up label is a farce. Whether the results were in your preference or not is irrelevant.
