I see this got posted to IT. I cannot post to reddit nor do I have any desire to so I'll debunk their retarded comments here.

Incels, not knowing the term "false equivalence" since 1993. Not having food, water, shelter, or healthcare can result in death. Not being able to vote means lacking representation, making you more vulnerable to legislation that screws you over. Not having sex just reduces your chances of unwanted pregnancies and STDs.
She conveniently chose to outright ignore the numerous studies that link sexual activity with a variety of health benefits, and ones that show loneliness to be increase one's risk of numerous diseases including cardiovascular disease and dementia/Alzheimer's disease. This isn't fringe science and anyone can find the papers if they make an effort to look.
This pandemic is perhaps the only time when public health officials and politician actually acknowledged the dangers of isolation and loneliness to people's mental health because now most people were at risk from this. I am not exaggerating, they brought a psychologist on the radio to talk about how important human contact is. Yet under normal circumstances, a large number of lonely men are just expected to be okay with living in isolation. If the only consequences of not having sex is a reduction in STDs and unwanted pregnancies, why aren't normies abstaining from sex and partying, even during a pandemic when lives are on the line?

You have access to sex through prostitution. You don’t want the sex, you’re pissed the fuck off because you want to be the guy that gets the girl he wants and you’re not
Firstly, paying for sex is criminalized in my country and even though it is pretty widespread, it's not completely safe either and if a man gets busted he can go to jail. So no, I don't technically "have access". Secondly, anyone here can tell you that it's not just about sex. Sex is really just a side effect of being valued and accepted by others. No, fucking a prostitute that resents me doesn't solve anything. I want to be loved, I want a family, I want to be respected, I want to be invited places, I want to be missed when I'm not around. These are basic things the average human being has.
And I've hired prostitutes who were much hotter and younger than any civilian woman I'd ever hope to be with so his point about "getting the girl he wants" is moot.
