Manosphere IceCat - the defender of loveshies

I may be veering into A-log territory but I have a feeling this is why most loveshys are white and come from relatively well off backgrounds.
Well, many of the "True Forced Loneliness" guys seems to be black, and a lot of the Sluthaters are asians, indians and middle easterners raging about being unable to fuck white women.
 
Raise awareness of the phenomenon by actually acknowledging terms like 'incel' etc.

How does society "acknowledge" a term? There's no big government database of words that are real and words that aren't. Do you want David Cameron to have a press conference where he tells people that incel is totes a thing?

It's not like psychologists and psychological literature don't already extensively discuss the degree to which sexuality (and lack of it) can affect mental health. There's an entire branch of psychology dedicated to it. The fact that they haven't come to conclusions that support yours isn't due to lack of awareness, it's due to your conclusions being stupid.

I do agree with you that prostitution should be legal, but that's more due to my concern for sex worker's rights than "incels". But I don't think legal prostitution would actually stop "incel" whining. That German pilot, who many incels have claimed as one of their own, came from a country where prostitution is legal and readily available.

Hmm, perhaps I've misread the demographic. All of the notable incel/loveshy exponents I've seen here have been white but I've not explored the movement that much.
 
Tbh I don't think IceCat deserves his own thread, he's just a random sperg. Nothing he does is lulzworthy in any way. Just ban him if he gets him too annoying. Also why is everyone acting like he did some terrible thing to 4Macie? This isn't Tumblr, we don't make a thread about someone for asking "triggering" questions.
I made a thread on him because he was derailing the Marijan thread (and some others), not just for asking a question. That was just an extra detail.

put the word back in wikipedia??

That german pilot definitely was not incel, and anyone that thinks that he was is an idiot. I said before the majority of SlutHate posters are idiots, I don't associate with them.

I concur that many 'loveshy' tend to be (older) white, many 'incel' tend to be (younger) ethnic.
 
I don't really follow this whole loveshy/incel thing but I think I sort of understand where they're coming from, simply because contemporary society is very sex obsessed, to the point where it's become a commodity or a trophy rather than as a pleasurable and intimate activity. Young people especially are caught in this trap and forced to buy in to a system where you are often judged by your sexual conquests or lack thereof, and it's actually quite amazing that a lot of much older adults still think in these terms too.

Where these people fall over philosophically is that instead of rejecting this system, they buy even more deeply into it because they say that it's "owed" to them because of their position in society or something - at least that's what I'm understanding by a cursory reading of this shit.
 
Give us your own definition of "incel".
These were his definitions:
loveshies cannot talk, interact, etc. with opposite sex
severe loveshies cannot even reciprocate interest in opposite sex even if they want to very much
I feel for these severe cases (usually young ones, teen/early 20s) very much and imagine the regret they feel sometimes

it is very related to, some even say synonymous, with social anxiety

incels don't have this problem, they approach opposite sex but get shot down constantly
I use better judgement on these to see if they are ok or unsavoury
Yeah, basically the same thing.

I think I've found at least one of the root causes of @IceCat's white knighting of Loveshys and incels.
my mother is more-or-less the root cause of my pain. Up until the age of 18 she fervently did her best to isolate me away from any female interaction; and she basically succeeded. Until the age of 18 I was absolutely isolated away from the female sex. It is no wonder why I was a social freak when I went to college.

When I was 24 I brought home the most beautiful girl I probably have ever dated. My mother's reaction: burst into my room and start screaming at the girl. The girl dumped me obviously very quickly after this incident.

There are other stories. Suffice to say that she destroyed my life.
But saying all this however, I do not hate her, at least not nearly as much as I used to. She is my mother, and according to the Bible I must respect her for this. In her warped mind I guess maybe she was doing what she thought was OK.
I like to defend loveshys and, with discretion, incels

A couple of questions directed at @IceCat,

1) Why do you white knight Loveshys?
2) Were Elliot Rodgers actions justified? If so, why?

I don't think that the role of sex has been that much different during different ages unless you count artificial repression on sexuality during certain eras/in certain cultures. At least for males, sexual conquests have been strongly tied to social status since the dawn of man.

Well, prior to the widespread use/acceptance of contraception there was always a strongly reproductive aspect associated with it, usually due to the aegis of influence exerted by the Church and so on, especially in the west.

I guess maybe what I mean is that now it's much more explicit and ubiquitous when people talk about and judge themselves and others based on sexual conquests and so on. Maybe it's just me?

Yeah okay, except that brothels still thrived even if the religion forced the public face of sex to be about Muh union between man and woman, as sanctioned by GobJesus. And besides that, marriage(=sex) was a status symbol among the public in society even even if the very "carnal" portion of it wasn't.

That's because of the spread of the communication technology and the repressive nature of the Church playing a smaller part in people's lives.

Okay I don't want to turn this into a topic about Christianity and the history of sexual morality but the point is that I am of the opinion that people nowadays are very susceptible to the idea that sex is somehow a barometer of being a successful human being, which I personally feel is quite unhealthy.

Perhaps it could be, but they dont argue that. They demand sex from women and think chin elongation will solve their inceldom.

Hence- lolcow.
