An, "incel", is someone whose [[SMV]] and [[LMS]] is so low, they have been reduced to a constant state of [[nonredamancy]]. Older definitions define it as someone who was 'involuntarily celibate' for six months or more although inceldom is usually a life-long pattern, and many self-described incels are celibate for decades at a time, and are often adult virgins. One of the biggest misconceptions about inceldom is that it is an ideology, a community, a subculture a movement or group. Incelibacy is none of those things. It is simply a situation you are in. If you are celibate, and that celibacy is unintentional (i.e. involuntary), then you are an incelibate, otherwise known as incel. The only reason that incels or incelibates use an abbreviated form of the longer term is that "incel" has only two syllables, thus is easier to say. "Incelibate" has four syllables, again easy to say. In contrast, the term "involuntarily celibate person" has 11 syllables, which is much harder to say. Therefore the term "incel" is to "involuntary celibate" the same thing as what "lb" is to "pound". "Incelibate" is to "involuntarily celibate" the same as what "USA" is to the "United States of America". Just because a longer term is abbreviated doesn't mean that the definition has changed. So in a nutshell, "incel" is simply an abbreviation of the term "involuntarily celibate". | An, "incel", is someone whose [[SMV]], [[decile position]] and [[LMS]] is so low, they have been reduced to a constant state of [[nonredamancy]].

The network of forums wherein self-identified online incels (incelospherians) congregate is referred to as the [[incelosphere]]. After the great [[Battle of Incelistan]] the current remaining forums are: [[Incels.me]], [[Braincels]], [[Facebook]]'s [[Incelistan]], [[Love-shy.com]], and [[Incelswithouthate]]. Also [[foreveralone]], [[Love Not Anger]], [[Social Anxiety Support]]'s [[virginity frustration subforum]], and [[4chan|4chan's]] [[r9k]], are arguably incel boards. The [[PSL]] board scene was populated by incels but never officially self-identified as incel, just as linux usergroups are populated by incels but don't self-identify as such. The self-identifying incel forums became more lookist as the [[PSL]] board scene evolved from exclusive anti-pickup-artistry to exclusive lookist theory. These incels are known for being [[NEET]], being victims of abuse, having medical disabilities, being in therapy and taking psych drugs, being considered physically unattractive, and spending way too much time on the internet. It is generally accepted that [[femcel|femcels]] don't exist beyond medical issues, extreme shyness, and countries with arranged marriages. Many, but not all incel forums, subscribe to the philosophy of the, "[[blackpill]]". BlackOps2Cel is the poster-boy of the incelosphere. | The network of forums wherein self-identified online incels (incelospherians) congregate is referred to as the [[incelosphere]].

There are also non-English incelospherian communities, such as the German [[Absolute Beginners]], the Italian [[Forum of Ugly]], and the Japanese [[Kakuhido]]. | |||
