Why is it always a bunch of young adult white males? Don't we have a cure for incels yet?

I live in a country where prostitution is legalized. Maybe that would help these guys.

Oh and therapy.

There is absolutely a cure for incels, yes, but nobody in the west would like it. So you're kind of stuck with them.

The prostitution thing won't work, though. I actually got fed up with a loud incel peripheral to a social circle I was part of and snapped, offering to hire him a hooker right then and there so he could STFU about how he'd never been laid.

Immediately he moved the goalposts and said he didn't just want to get laid, he wanted a "genuine emotional relationship". Saying this despite for the previous two hours only ever talking about sex, sex appeal, sexual characteristics, etc. with not a word spent on "genuine emotion".

Some people just want to whine, and when they gather in groups they spiral destructively.

Let's be real: it's about control. They want sex on their terms, and paying for it doesn't put them in control. They say things like "genuine human connection," while desperately wanting a traditional, subservient woman that they can use to satisfy their needs.

Well yes. It's about sex and specifically forcing sex.

They're wannabe rapists, in effect.
