Jump to navigation Jump to search

This Incel Glossary contains terminology and slang that is commonly used within incel communities and the broader incelosphere. Usage of these terms may be shared among the wider manosphere.

-cel[edit | edit source]

Suffix denoting involuntary celibate. Used in the formation of the words: gymcel, heightcel, baldcel, workcel, wristcel, etc. The stem word indicates the condition that made him incel, an activity that the incel pursues to compensate or cope with his lack of success with women, or just an incel that happens to possess the quality. For example, a baldcel is a balding man who is unattractive to women because of his hair loss. A gymcel is a man who spends his free time exercising in the hopes that a fit body will cause him to become more attractive to women. A currycel is a South Asian male who happens to be an incel. See incel for specifics. It is also used more generally to refer to people that possess a specific trait, even if they aren't incels, usually as a form of trolling. This latter form of usage originated on the PSL forums.

-maxx/-maxxing/-max[edit | edit source]

An effort to improve an aspect of one's life to secure sexual and/or romantic intimacy. "Maximize" it. Used to denote self-improvement in general.

-mogged[edit | edit source]

Suffix indicating being dominated by another person. The stem word denotes the feature that one is being dominated by. Derives from the PUA term AMOG, or "alpha male of the group".

Deliberately trying to humiliate or otherwise dominate others was advocated as a form of increasing your perceived social value to women by pick-up artists, this usage later morphed to refer to any feature that supposedly contributes to perceptions of social dominance in general, many of which are proposed in a facetious manner.

Examples:

heightmogged[edit | edit source]

Being dominated by another man’s height.

wristmogged[edit | edit source]

Being dominated by a man with a thicker wrist.

-pill[edit | edit source]

Refers to embracing a type of philosophy or worldview. Coined from the movie The Matrix where the character Morpheus gives the protagonist Neo the option to either accept his harsh reality by swallowing a red pill or to go back to being connected to the matrix (a comforting illusion) by swallowing the blue pill. This analogy spawned several terms that use the word -pill as a suffix to denote different realizations or worldviews:

redpill[edit | edit source]

In regards to involuntary celibacy, confronting the idea that exchanges of material value largely drive one's mating success, as opposed to abstract concepts like "love", and that female hypergamy limits the majority of men's sexual success. A guy like Undead Chronic is a good example:https://www.youtube.com/@undeadchronicxiv4189

bluepill[edit | edit source]

The preference of believing in a comforting or convenient lie, especially when it concerns a person's worldview. In regards to involuntary celibacy, this essentially refers to attitudes that minimize the role of individual differences, such as physical attractiveness, or social constraints in driving human mating success in favor of platitudes such as "you'll find someone one day" and the like.

whitepill[edit | edit source]

The acceptance phase of the blackpill. When one seeks to assimilate blackpill knowledge to either improve your life or to find ways of coping with being a male that is disadvantaged by factors the blackpill discusses. The term has also been used by some to refer to the negation of the black pill i.e another form of the bluepill.

bid[edit | edit source]

Bids (or biddys) resemble cucks in that they put resources into a relationship which does not benefit their own progeny, either caring for another man's young or putting resources into a woman who is sleeping with other men.

The difference is that unlike the traditional cuck who is deceived, bids willingly consent to engage in these types of relationships, openly adopting children they know are not their own, or consenting to an "open" relationship which allows sex with other men while the man gets no extra sex at all.

Bids often engage in "cuckold fetishism" where they roleplay that they are being cheated on, but that isn't real cuckolding, just like rape roleplay is not real rape. That said, bids often get cucked for real, as their foids do not respect them and will easily step outside the "boundaries" the bid thinks he can set for her.

The etymology of bids is a shortening from the 2nd syllable of cebidae, a family of monkeys including the subfamily callitridae which includes the polyandrous marmoset/tamarin monkeys who become pathetic "non-reproductive helpers" while their polyandrous "mates" only allow the Chad monkeys to impregnate them.

Some lookism forum users claim that a negative canthal tilt is an extremely unattractive feature on men. They argue that it looks droopy and unintimidating.

For both men and women, a positive canthal tilt is argued to be ideal. It can be argued that an overly positive canthal tilt is a slightly negative trait in males, as it is a feminine feature. Also, an overly positive tilt can provide the face with an unusual appearance. Most male sex symbols have a neutral or slightly positive canthal tilt.

Sometimes used by lookists to point out that any effort other than plastic surgery is merely a coping mechanism and not productive toward finding a partner.

The Wall[edit | edit source]

When a person (typically a woman) rapidly experiences a decline in their physical appearance at a certain age (typically around the age of 30), which is dubbed "hitting the wall".

The typical conception of the wall in the manosphere goes as such: early in their lives, these women were attractive and typically engaged in casual sex with many men. When they reach late adulthood their attractiveness declines and they increasingly lower their standards, become desperate and search for a 'beta provider' to settle down with, as the men they find sexually attractive have other, younger prospects.

Particularly in lookist incel communities, it is sometimes argued that the idea of women hitting 'the wall' is a coping mechanism by bitter men as women's SMV is often argued to be unlimited, at least for casual sexual encounters.
