Men who hate women: the misogyny of involuntary celibate men
>We analyzed every comment (N = 3,686,110) produced over 42 months ( 8 November 2017 - 16 April 2021) on a popular incel discussion board and found that nearly all active participants use misogynistic terms.
>The majority of participants’ use of misogynistic terms does not increase or decrease with post frequency, suggesting that members arrive (rather than become) misogynistic.
>We find that the majority of both threads (82%) and users’ post histories (81%) contain at least one misogynistic term.
>. While appearing scientific, incels frequently cite single studies, ignore counter claims, or cherry pick examples
>Adopting a resource such as Google’s Fact Check to engage with false claims made by incels could serve as an efficient and effective means of challenging incel ideologies
> Incels create a typology of women, differentiating “Stacys” from “big
black vaginas” and “noodlewhores.”
>Participants used “Racist Misogyny” terms (e.g. “noodlewhore”) more than 33,000 times.
