<li>In opposition to traditionalists, some blackpillers claim that technological progress, such as highly immersive simulated relationship experiences and realistic sex dolls present a possible solution to increasing male social alienation and inceldom. Critics of these solutions maintain that due to phenomena such as the "uncanny valley" effect, such experiences will prove to be, essentially, an elaborate form of masturbation, and will likely not serve as suitable substitutes for actual sex and companionship. Artificial wombs are also touted as a technological solution for incels who wish to reproduce without a willing female partner. Some blackpillers also view advances in the medical field of plastic surgery as a source of optimism, and claim widespread societal awareness of lookism—potentially leading to government subsidized plastic surgery for incels—would also present a possible solution to the problem. Some argue only changing human nature itself can help, which would either require genetic engineering, thousands of years of evolution or selective breeding. | <li>In opposition to traditionalists, some blackpillers claim that technological progress, such as highly immersive simulated relationship experiences and realistic sex dolls present a possible solution to increasing male social alienation and inceldom.

Extending the idea of introducing laws and rules to regulate behavior like in ''state-issued girlfriends'', one can consider various ways of punishing singlehood and promiscuity, and reinforcing pairing up monogamously, whether by removing existing conditions (negative) or introducing new ones (positive). | Extending the idea of introducing laws and rules to regulate behavior like in ''state-issued girlfriends'', one can consider various ways of punishing singlehood and promiscuity, and reinforcing pairing up monogamously, whether by removing existing conditions (negative) or introducing new ones (positive). | ||
Blackpillers have proposed state subvention could pay male and female incels for pairing up (''positive reinforcement''). Similarly, one could disincentivize promiscuity and singlehood instead, e.g. by taxing promiscuous behavior<ref>https://www.academia.edu/40699045/Flower_Power_Tax_Academic_Supports_FULL_</ref> and singles (''positive punishment''). Further, one could consider ''negative reinforcement'', e.g. by removing burdens that are associated with pairing up, e.g. abolishing harassment laws. | Blackpillers have proposed state subvention could pay male and female incels for pairing up (''positive reinforcement'').

Since much of inceldom appears to be linked to economic stagnation and hitting (perceived) limits of growth such as overpopulation, another solution consist in increasing economic growth, and perhaps expanding the population beyond Earth by e.g. colonizing Mars, however such solutions are only relevant for future generations. | Since much of inceldom appears to be linked to economic stagnation and hitting (perceived) limits of growth such as overpopulation, another solution consist in increasing economic growth, and perhaps expanding the population beyond Earth by e.g. colonizing Mars, however such solutions are only relevant for future generations. | ||
