===<span style="font-family:'Linux Libertine, Georgia, Times, serif'; font-size:24px; font-weight: normal;">Involuntary celibacy is defined academically as a 6 month period of celibacy despite effort for sex</span>=== | |||
---- | |||
Involuntary celibacy was academically defined in Donnelly et al. (2001) in an peer-reviewed article titled "Involuntary celibacy: A life course analysis" published in The Journal of Sex Research. | |||
To gain insight on their condition, a questionnaire was filled out by 60 men and 22 women who identified as involuntarily celibate. | |||
35% of respondents felt dissatisfied, frustrated, or angry about their previous lack of sexual relationships regardless of their current partnership status. | |||
The study also found grounding for a common incel concern, which is that as sexual and relationship milestones are missed, it becomes harder and harder to 'catch up' or normalize going forward. | |||

* ''Pervasive in our respondents' accounts was the theme of becoming and remaining off time in making normative sexual transitions, which in turn perpetuated a celibate life course or trajectory.'' | |||
