If someone wants to give up dating due to their looks, age or genetics (that includes mental state) that’s a totally valid reason if you ask me. As long as it doesn’t translate to misogyny no one will get hurt. However a lot of people seem to be ticked off by this idea, why?

    I’m not interested in pills, black or otherwise. Single ‘l’ - as in beer - maybe! Haha

    Live and let live. If individuals are obviously not leading a compassionate life then keep away, but mass labelling an entire set of individuals that you do not know as incels - noting the hateful meaning of that word - is the very definition of bigotry.

    I though we’d got rid of labelling people for their dating preferences when being lesbian, gay or bi stopped being particularly note-worthy in the glam-rock era. It’s a shame that you’re still behaving like those knuckle draggers of the 1970s with a different target.

    You have given two options: aro or incel. There is an enormous third option which is unavailable to anyone but you, I guess.

    Apparently I’m not allowed to use the word ‘bigot’ for a bigot. You don’t define my language use.
