Incel, is short for '''involuntarily celibate''', a term describing a life circumstance. 'Involuntarily celibate' is a [[Donnolly Study#Incel is Now a Valid Academic Sociological Term|valid academic sociological term]] proposed by [[Alana]] and popularized in academia by the [[Donnolly Study]], referring to people who would like to have a sexual or romantic partner but can't find one for 6 months or more, and then remain celibate. The date may seem arbitrary, but there had to be a cutoff point, and Denise Donnolly chose 6 months as that factored in that some sexually active people go weeks without sex, and people start to worry about their sex lives after a certain period of time longer than that period. 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". | |||

The | 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]], [[Wizchan]], [[Facebook]]'s [[Incelistan]], [[Love-shy.com]], and [[Incelswithouthate]]. Also [[foreveralone]], [[Love Not Anger]], [[virginity frustration subforum|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. Many, but not all incel forums, subscribe to the philosophy of the, "[[blackpill]]". | ||
There are also non-English incelospherian communities, such as the German [[Absolute Beginners]], the Italian [[Forum of Ugly]], and the Japanese [[Kakuhido]]. | |||

[[File:40daysand40nights.jpg|thumb|right|<center>Normies, when not lying to incels about celibacy being easy, in reality consider going even 40 days without sexual intimacy as complete savagery</center>]] | |||
Since [[normie]]s, [[chad]]s, [[becky]]s, [[stacy|stacie]]s, [[tanner]]s, and [[brad]]s don't like to pair up people anymore, they tell incels it's near 100% incels own fault that they can't find a partner. So they offer self-help "[[platitude|advice]]". Incels are told by [[normie|normies]] that looks don't matter, but [[normie|normies]] always are curious about how ugly incels are and assume they don't take enough showers or get enough haircuts. They tell incels to be themselves, but to pick up hobbies they don't like. They tell incels that [[PUA|pick up artists]] are full of shit but that incels don't have enough [[PUA|'game']] to <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">date [[rape]] drunk women at bars</span> 'pick up women'. They tell incels that they are too [[nice guy|nice]] but also that they are [[asshole|assholes]]. They tell incels that sexual intimacy is not that important, but they themselves buy and/or create movies and songs about how sexual intimacy is one of the most important things in the world and they get upset if they have a few week long dry spell. | |||
They tell incels that they 'just need to get laid', and also that they 'don't need sex'. | |||
They tell incels that sexual intimacy isn't a commodity in a game with a reward, but think of male virgins as "[[betabux|losers]]" and tell incels that they don't "deserve" intimacy due to their actions. | They tell incels that sexual intimacy isn't a commodity in a game with a reward, but think of male virgins as "[[betabux|losers]]" and tell incels that they don't "deserve" intimacy due to their actions. | ||
