Another aspect is that one becomes a [[genetic dead end]]. Despite the fact that some people rejoice at the prospects of being childless, claiming that it has afforded them freedoms and allowed them to focus on their careers etc. there are also setbacks to being childless. Having offspring can give a person meaning to life, it can be rewarding to raise another human, and children often bring one joy. What compounds the GDE if it results from inceldom, is that unlike GDE resulting from choice, a person on the [[inceldom spectrum]] is childless notwithstanding their own will. | Another aspect is that one becomes a [[genetic dead end]].

The death grip syndrome (DGS) refers to a loss of sensation in the penis from excessive masturbation. According to ''sexpert'' Dan Savage, when this friction stems from repeated or learned forms of masturbation, it may result in an inability to orgasm.<ref>https://www.salon.com/2015/11/22/men_theres_an_obvious_easy_way_to_avoid_losing_penis_sensitivity_partner/</ref> Men with DGS are much more likely to break up due to their partners' resulting self-esteem issues. | The death grip syndrome (DGS) refers to a loss of sensation in the penis from excessive masturbation.
