Indeed, nothing that explicitly contradicts the laws of physics and logic may be said to be impossible. If a man jumps from the summit of a skyscraper, nothing in the laws of physics prevents the molecules in his body to bounce right back. But while every individual molecule has a certain non-zero probability of bouncing back, the likelihood that all (or even most) of those molecules will bounce back simultaneously is astronomically small. So small as to be practically equal to zero.
Likewise, it is not literally impossible for unattractive incel men to hit life's jackpot and find the love of their dreams. No doubt it does happen, even if only at a rate of one in ten million. However, the point that I'm trying to make is that one cannot build one's life expectations on probabilities that are so minute. It would be as foolish as basing your financial planning on the probability of winning the lottery.
I see too many
ers and other anti-incellers commit a strange and amusing sort of apex fallacy while trying to debunk truths. They will take some extraordinarily ugly or otherwise disadvantaged guy (like the late Sean Stephenson, or Stephen Hawking) and point out that he did get a wife. "Therefore, so can you!" But that's a complete non-sequitur. Even if we accept that Mindie Kniss really did love Sean (and I can't prove that she didn't), the very fact that this is such a celebrated couple only serves to underline, rather than contradict, the extreme rarity of such couples. The vast majority of guys in Sean's position don't get jack shit when it comes to sex and relationships. This is borne out both by statistics and by my own personal observations. In fact, it takes a whole lot less severe deformities than Stephenson's to virtually guarantee a man's inceldom for life.
