UK’s Top 10 Subcultures Revealed
Are you a punk, witch or gamer? New research says 56% of UK adults belong to a subculture…
www.bromsgrovestandard.co.uk
Some obscure UK brand marketing agency listed incels as a one of UK's top 5 fringe subculture along with "Steampunk, Off-grid living, Straight Edge and Non-monogamy".
Made me wonder, if incels are recognized as a 'formal' young adult male consumer category - separate from other broad consumer demographics 'gamers' or 'weeaboos' or 'porn consumers' or 'NEETs' in general what would the profile look like? Arguably 1.5 to 5% of the male population is incel in the West - if you can trust rough guesstimates by Gilmartin, Donnelly and large sexual (in)experience and health surveys. That's a lot of people combined - and represents a considerable amount of discretionary income, even if its just NEETbuxx or shit tier jobs of various kinds.
What would they sell us? What would an incel brand identity even look like? Could a brand oriented targeted specifically at incels even survive (economically and in the anti-incel media landscape)?
