When I was 17, in the middle of class, my male teacher said something to the effect of: "Lucky you're at least good at algebra, you being ugly and all". It was like a punch to the gut. I had been called ugly before in the hallways but by a teacher in the middle of class? I almost thought I had misheard. No one laughed or anything and a minute later people were silently solving their maths problems again.
When I got home I thought back and questioned whether it had been a figment of my imagination, but it had definitely happened, everyone had looked at me. This was when I really wasn't aware of how ugly I was, so it caught me off guard.
I actually confronted him about him in an email when I was about 25, not in an angry way, just wondering how he could call a teenager ugly in front of his peers, especially it being such a sensitive age. He replied with a thumbs down emoji, nothing more.
Today, if he had called someone by the wrong pronoun, he would have been reprimanded, but he felt completely comfortable calling a 17-year old boy ugly.
Incels can't win. There's no justice if you don't have a good face.
