It is true that the only unifying trait of incels is being involuntarily deprived of sex. (However, some incels argue the word incel has more to do with romance than sex) Regardless, being involuntarily deprived of sex does not mean that you want sex or that it is the only thing you want. Some incels only want a romantic companion, others want marriage, some want offspring, others want validation and others want the [[social status]] associated with having a partner. Some want to get a SO due to parental pressure, or because they want to quell rumors that they're gay. Others want independence from parents, i.e. "leaving the nest" that is sometimes associated with romantic [[relationship]]s. Some involuntary celibates seek the tax-breaks and other social benefits that are often associated with being in a partnership. | It is true that the only unifying trait of incels is being involuntarily deprived of sex.
