I browse "All" most of the time and the Femcel Memes show up pretty regularly. It's not like this gif though. It's more like watching a super interesting science experiment.
"Ah, yes. I see. I see. How interesting!"
My scientific notes so far:
Who among us cannot say the same?
I can! I'm disgusted by other people touching me. I'm more like those shy cats that hide under the furniture if you try to pet them, and only come hang out next to you if you leave them alone
(and yes it's 'tism)
You can crave cuddles and be disgusted by other human beings at the same time.
It's called I have a person, and only that person may touch me. And the cat. The cat too.
Understandable, yes! I lack that too though, I just don't like to be touched nor touch others, and I do not desire it either. I do like to pet... or I guess more like poke and pat animals (though there's specific conditions for what type of fur I will tolerate touching), but that's about it. I can hug my dog but that's about the extend of it. I also have problems with my own limbs touching each other or my torso which causes more issues honestly. "Touch starved" is something I simply don't understand lmao
Not sure that i do. Those seem to be completely pointless and I'm always baffled why people crave those so much. Under good circumstances, after practicing those become completely neutral, but usually those are just uncomfortable.
I just took an NFPA 70E electrical safety course, and the instructor was talking about how electricians love to cuddle.
I thought it was weird for a sec, then I remembered the last time I opened an electrical panel with someone else nearby. Then I remembered every other time I opened an electrical panel with other people nearby. Then I remembered all the times that I was all the other people nearby.
Then he showed us a video of an arc flash with 3 people inside the panel, and then there was nobody nearby.
Arc flashes are nature’s way of saying cuddle time is over.
Straight guys can't say it. Not because they don't crave them, they just can't say that they do without social sanction. Everyone else apparently gets a pass though.
I'll say it; I crave cuddles.
Cuddles while watching TV is one of the only things that'll pull me away from my computer.
Brave. Now say it on a de-anonymized platform and enjoy being a social pariah for the rest of your life.
I'm absolutely baffled by this comment. What makes you think this would be an even remotely controversial thing to say?
Pffft. Grow the fuck up, find your fucking balls and fucking own it.
It only plays that way if you let it.
Having balls doesn't stop society from ridiculing/deriding/scorning/stigmatizing/sanctioning me. Oh, if only growing a pair was all I needed to do.
As if being rejected by society is something I have control over! It takes a sociopathic narcissist to think "people can only hate me if I let them."
It takes the aforementioned set of minerals to cease giving a flying fuck what those that have negative comment for showing your feelings have to say.
Society at large doesn't ridicule for that, merely certain toxic subsets that should be rightfully shunned into nonexistence.
Become the change you want to see.
just wait till you see the cuddle parties in vrchat with full body tracking hehe
(I'm the one with piece signs)
though, unfortunately not with the folks from femcel memes... :(
^cough cough !VRChat@sh.itjust.works cough cough^
Strange as fuck heh. Also, it's a rich person solution as well.
I think I just walked in here from searching about VR stuff, but you can 3d print a PCVR headset and assemble with off the shelf components for under $150 USD (there's an article on hackaday), or buy used headsets for $200-300. It's not unobtainable to most, I think.
That would literally fuck up my life rn actually. Believe it or not.
Another note is that they seem to all be autistic, with many of them exhibiting symptoms of severe depression. Most are also trans lesbians. Many seem to be cat/fox/puppygirls.
Conclusion: headpats are in order
"Aw cute puppygirls!" head pats
"Ew gross incels, yuck!" social stigma
The difference being that the puppygirls aren't lashing out and demeaning others ... they're just bed rotting while watching yaoi
Lots of lonely guys aren't lashing out and demeaning others either, but people don't notice them because they're not lashing out and demeaning others. They still get labeled as incels though, and if they find that hurtful then people will absolutely shred them for it anyway.
Also, they'll be shamed for bed rotting, and shamed for watching yuri. No matter what they do, they'll be shamed for it. So it's honestly not surprising when a number of them end up lashing out.
Are people calling those who don't behave like assholes "incel" though?
And do you think that women are not judged if they behave in the femcel manner?
It seems like you're applying a double standard, there.
Yes, people do call even the ones who aren't being assholes "incels." It's a derogatory term that gets used against anyone who doesn't get laid. Like calling someone a "virgin." It's shitty, and it promotes toxic masculinity. It also objectifies women by implying that men need to "get p***y" in order to be worthy of basic respect.
And I'm tired of hearing this excuse that "it doesn't refer to literal involuntary celibates, it refers to redpilled misogynistic jerks." But that simply isn't true, because people definitely apply it to literal "involuntary celibates" and use it as an insult like calling someone a "virgin." It's childish and immature. Also, there are lots of misogynistic jerks who get laid. Focusing all your ire on "incels" misses the point entirely, lets those people off the hook, and perpetuates the issue by communicating the subtext that "you can be a misogynistic jerk as long as you get laid, and then we'll still respect you." If you can't see how that's toxic and detrimental to society, then I can't help you.
They're more likely to be fetishized, which is bad in a different way. But it certainly hasn't risen to the level of a cultural pastime like shaming incels has.
I'm not the one applying a double-standard. I'm pointing out the double-standard.
I never said "femcels should be shamed, and incels shouldn't be."
I said "femcels don't get shamed the same way incels do."
If the former is how you interpret the latter, that's on you. If I need to explicitly state what I meant, it's closer to this:
"Maybe nobody should be shamed for being lonely and having poor social skills, regardless of gender."
If the issue is misogyny, target the misogyny. Not the inability to get sex, because that is going to do nothing to address the misogyny.
From that wall of text, I'm going to surmise that "incel" has been used as a pejorative towards you, with a reason that you're blind to
From that dismissive answer, I'm going to surmise that you leap to conclusions about people and throw around "incel" as an insult because it makes you feel powerful to punch down on people with poor social skills.
I've never used that word as a pejorative. In fact, my favourite regular was a man who found himself unable to socialise with women
Okay, you're just assuming I'm blind to some reason that you assume people have to call me that pejoratively, as you assume they do. You don't actually use it pejoratively, just strongly insinuate it. Got it.
Oh no, I think you're a self-centered prize dickhead.
You're the one who made this conversation about me, so calling me self-centered feels a bit like a really shitty attempt at entrapment.
You clearly give so many shits though, to still be carrying on. But going off the responses by people who actually read what I said in my "wall of text" that you didn't read before firing off insults, they seemed to think it was an articulate and well-reasoned argument.
So maybe you're the dickhead?
One person said that.
Huh? Oh, you're still here? That's weird...
As are you
Yeah, I just think it's weird that you care so much about punching down on people you view as lesser. Like you seriously must really enjoy insulting people who already don't do well socially.
It's not really the fact that you're commenting that's weird, it's the malice that you do it with and the fact that you apparently don't have anything better to do than demean others. And how you try to do so with this pretense of moral superiority.
I'm just glad I don't have to live with so much hatred in my heart. That sounds heavy. I kinda pity you, actually...
If I enjoyed punching down on men who have problems getting laid, why would I have enjoyed fucking so many of them?
So does "social skills" = "getting laid" in your opinion?
Because I only mentioned social skills, and you seemed to make the leap to "getting laid."
That sounds like a you problem.
Also, I don't care who you fuck or how much you enjoy it. It's kinda weird that you're trying to use that to justify being an asshole.
It means that those guys are no longer incels, by definition
Hmm yes they often are even when they are just complaining that they disdain the situation. I don't know about women though I don't know that many that are bed rotting
If they can look up Yaoi, bed rot, or even have the energy to complain about men, they are underemployed. I can't even think about sex without realizing I could probably pull it off, but my job would get in the way of it, as with anything. The workplace is our god, everything, even family is secondary, because you can't have family without work.
Anyone who has more free time than they spend sleeping is "underemployed" in your opinion?
You sound like a severely sick and twisted individual.
I feel sorry for your family, if you have one.
My family would not be around if I didn't work. They would not have survived. If you can do these things, you are clearly privileged, and could be doing better things with your time.
I will not be sorry, why should someone else make a hissy fit over "boo-hoo no one wants me".
I literally can't even muster the energy to think about that lesser shit, because I'm actually fighting for my life.
While these fuckers parasite around.
It's a perfectly reasonable expectation to have that people should be able to make a decent living while still having enough free time to spend with family and loved ones; or in the absence of a family, doing whatever one chooses to do in their freetime, up to and including commiserating with others about their loneliness.
If you don't agree with that, then you're not a friend of the proletariat. You're licking oligarch boots if you think everyone else should have to work every minute of their waking life to survive just because you do.
If you really have to work that much, and you think the problem is that not everyone else has to work as much as you do, instead of the problem being that anyone should have to work as much as you claim to, then you're a fucking class traitor and a corporate shill.
I don't give a fuck if you think other people are "lesser shit" or that their problems don't matter. And if that's honestly how you feel, then I don't give a fuck about your problems either, because solidarity isn't a one-way street.
You can call it a "boo-hoo hissy fit" every time someone mentions a problem they face that you don't care about, but don't expect any fucking sympathy when you're the one complaining about your problems, as you're doing now.
Feel free to call people parasites for not living like slaves. That's the rhetoric fascists use, so at least you're taking the mask off.
Why should I not be a fascist if I'm judged only by my immutable characteristics, if the world wants me gone, what incentive do I have not to be the same?
I have been holding back, putting up with bullshit, being kind to people who treat me like dirt because I believed in giving people a chanc. Then they go vote in the Jeffrey Epsteins, and try to exterminate those like me.
You get what you fucking deserve!
That's something only a fascist would say.
What immutable characteristic do you think you're being judged by? I don't know anything about you or your immutable characteristics.
I'm not judging you for any immutable characteristics. I'm judging you for being an unsympathetic and pretentious asshole who wants to be a part of the problem instead of part of the solution. You want to tear people down to your level, not lift everyone (including yourself) up to a baseline level of dignity and respect. That's why I'm judging you.
That's basically the same rhetoric that zionists use to justify genociding their neighbors. Are you agreeing with them by saying it's a valid argument?
I could sympathize with that. I've felt the same way for a long time. But that's no excuse to start punching down. Direct your anger at the source of the problem, not at your fellow victims just because they're easier targets.
Yes, that's a problem. Focus on that, not on lonely guys on the internet who are trying to find a sense of community in some of the only places that actually accept them.
You're projecting a lot of weight onto me with that statement. Weight that I haven't earned. I won't sit by and tolerate you treating me like a maga asshole despite the fact that I've done everything in my power to resist their return to power. You don't know shit about me.
If friendly fire is your only tactic, go join the fascists and be self-destructive over there.
No point talking here anyway. People only comprehend certain things when they feel it raw themselves.
Then maybe you will understand why Incels and Femcels are actually an afront. To be so coddled that you have the gal to feel entitled to other people dating you, while the world burns, while there are more important things out there.
You're missing the point entirely. And I'm not going to rehash everything just to explain how.
Oh, but what I will say is that people who are isolated are fractured and weak. A bunch of isolated individuals can not present a very strong resistance. So one would think you'd have more sympathy for people trying to find community, even in small ways.
But if you're just going to call those people coddled (by whom? Who's coddling them, if they're isolated and lonely? Bad logic) and pretend it's about entitlement and not the empirically verified deep-seated psychological need that all humans have for camaraderie and socialization, then I can't really help you and I'm not gonna waste my time trying.
So go on, keep punching down on the vulnerable, while you're focusing all your ire on them instead of the problems that you claim they should be focused on (as if people can't consider about more than one problem?).
Self-awarewolf, eh? You're the one here complaining that other people have problems that you don't care about or sympathize with.
Trust me, I learned not to want or need people, it is a choice and not a need. And if you constantly desire things while you are still insecure, you will just hurt more.
Better to cut the scab early. Quit coffee as soon as you can, quit YouTube, become sober, focus on self-improvement, stop depending on people.
The sooner you do this, the less you will hurt.
