'''PSL''' in an acronym used widely in the [[incelosphere]] for 3 consecutive forums that overlapped in userbase and prominent forum members: '''P'''uahate.com, '''S'''luthate.com, and '''L'''ookism.net.

None of these forums had/have sub-forums which self-identified as incel subforums, although the term was widely used in the "Shitty Advice" section of PUAhate, which was the most visited sub-forum the last few years of the site | '''PSL''' in an acronym used widely in the [[incelosphere]] for 3 consecutive forums that overlapped in userbase and prominent forum members: '''P'''uahate.com, '''S'''luthate.com, and '''L'''ookism.net.

Lookism.net broke tradition a bit by self-identifying as an incel forum sorta around 2017, as well as becoming more sympathetic to pick-up-artistry. | ||
