I'm only an "incel" insofar as nothing is voluntary and we live in a world where sex in inaccessible for a good number of males, not individually perhaps, but collectively, due to hypergamy, and the fact that females (through no fault of their own) have evolved to prefer to breed with violent barbarian/thuggish men simply because if they didn't when their village or tribe was being conquered, they would be killed- hence, their sexual preferences are stacked, ironically, against civilization and in favor of breeding masculine violence in the long run, and more critically, to deny sex to males who don't make their relatively simple minds (to be fair, the average male has an equally simple mind) feel dominated, and lie about it.
That's the framing we need to adopt.
"Looksmaxxing" is retarded and pointless because it doesn't solve anything, collectively or even individually in the long-term, as we, as truly human males (unless you are, like too many and an increasing number, subhuman chimpanzees), need to pursue a meaning to live and when we have one, are motivated to selflessly (although evolutionarily, this is hardly selfless) produce, expand, and build beyond oneself something meaningful, for oneself and one's progeny and community and even the human race as a whole.
"Looksmaxxing" for scraps of pussy on Tinder or some bullshit (or even some retard "tradcon marriage" with a 3/10 fat 33-year-old "tradwife" who "only" had 6 boyfriends in her twenties, whoah so traditional) does not do this. There is no net benefit for society- it's literally a zero-sum game, and no one (unless they are deeply, deeply retarded) looksmaxxes because they want to be "moral". If we assume the 80/20 principle to be even remotely true, then it stands to reason that to "grow" in this respect and "join" the top 20% is to "push" others out of that 20%, and nothing is solved. It's not like more looksmaxxers/PUAs results in women having more sex with a greater percentage of men overall- it's even possible that the opposite is the case as feminism progresses and as looksmaxxer/PUA shit makes women "woke" to male "dishonesty"- how men are clearly just "faking it" making them raise their standards even higher in the long run.
With regards to individual men, it's just a stupid probability game. Looks has a strong influence on this, but it's more behavior than looks, and anyone here who says otherwise is a retard or propagandized to by "Black Pill Science" or whatever. If your looks are bad, your chances of getting sex, love, relationships, etc. with women are significantly reduced- the moreso, the moreso. At a certain point, the chance becomes so low that it is relatively (not completely) insurmountable.
The onus is on society, not the individual, to engineer systems where a larger number of males have a greater chance, where quality male genes are spread more than the barbarian/thug/asshole male genes that females as a whole tend to gravitate towards. We also don't want incompetent/ultraweak/unhealthy genes to spread as much, either, but women are already repulsed by these things so no effort is required here, unless you have a system where these males are literally forced to breed or females are forced to breed with them (don't do this lol). We want males to have systemic access and sexual leverage over females that is redistributed away from a purely sexual anarcho-capitalist monopolistic view of things. We also want to maximize female well-being. And balance these with many other things that are necessary for social functioning as well as individual fulfillment and liberty/justice (personal values of mine) to make life worth living.
Well, FUCK, at least I want these things. Most retards and angry omegas on this forum seem not to. Oh well, I suppose I am alone, lol.
