That is not the case for me, though I do not begrudge other incels for giving in to the exploitation as a result of prolonged intimacy deprivation.
It's a matter of subjective preference tied in to your sense of self-reflection and ethics. The difference is, I am not responsible for my existence as an incel, but I can still refuse to give in to gynocentrism. As the old adage goes, I would rather endure what women inflict on me standing than find reprieve from it by going down on my knees and giving them literal tribute in exchange for their company, thereby validating their own designation of me as a second-class human.
As you said, it is a mental barrier, and you do not share the same values, evidently. But to say that doing so makes you a 'real red-blooded' male, improves self-worth, and makes you an Alpha among Stacy's and normies, that you ascended from subhuman to God mode by virtue of it? Sorry, but that is objectively a cope. You did not ascend from it, you solidified your status as a subhuman. There's a reason those Stacys and normies would all burst out laughing in your face if you suggested to them that you outdid them in some way by fucking a hot hooker.
The majority of normies absolutely have the money to visit a hooker at least once or twice as well, and women, well, they're so far high up the totem pole that they don't need any prostitution industry, which should be an indicator of just what does it say about someone's status in western society if they have to resort to it.
Still, as I've said, seen from a more realistic lens as a desperate bid for a fundamental human need, I do not begrudge those who give in, as much as I can understand giving in to manipulative and abusive drug dealers because you need the drugs.
