Your skepticism is more than understandable and I'll confess I'm more than a little sympathetic to it. After all, if a woman wanted you once, well, you're fundamentally different than a man that no woman wants or ever will. Considering that, I consider somewhat like Eggman, who lost his virginity at a relatively young age (relative, I suppose, to the "men" who go to the grave without doing so) with a woman who actually initiated the experience with something of a jaundiced eye when they bemoan the miseries of the incel's plight. There are certainly arguments to be made that one needn't be a virgin to belong to the sad tribe of the incels but, visceral reaction though it may be, whenever a man who a woman wanted speaks about the horrors of being unloved, I can't help but consider him something of a liar, charlatan, a false prophet.
Which may or may not be fair. Setting that aside for a moment, the Eggman holds a special place in my heart for introducing me to the black pill, though perhaps not in the way he intended. I think we can all agree that Eggman is no Adonis. So looking at the Eggman, studying him, enumerating his flaws, I subsequently learned this man crying about the horrors of being ugly wasn't so ugly that he had reached middle age as a virgin while I had. So, Eggman's first authentic lesson to me was that you needn't need to be a beautiful person for a woman to want you, you merely need to be human. Well, a woman wanted Eggman and no woman had ever wanted me. So I began to realize I didn't even rank as human.
After his video lamenting that it was hopeless for ugly men, I learned he had dated, had girlfriends and so on. Now, cynics claimed it was his minor degree of celebrity that drew the attention of women. No derision intended but, let's be honest. Eggman is no celebrity. And if what modicum of "fame" he won for himself in the most obscure, irrelevant corner of the internet was sufficient to make him attractive, he proved you need next to no status at all for a woman to consider you worthwhile.
So Eggman taught me you merely need to be a man rather than a monster, to exist as someone rather than as a shadow, to live as actual human beings live. Because the vast majority of people develop a romantic relationship at least once over the course of their lives. Those who don't are in the overwhelming minority, the real oddities, Nature's disasters incarnate. It's been said that we're all molded from stardust and it's a nice sentiment, I suppose, but one should always bear in mind that there are bad stars as well as good.
Eggman taught me that a wretched, ugly and spiteful man, when all is said and done, is still a man and that I, in contrast, was something infinitely worse.
