Some say general rates of celibacy should not be used as rates for inceldom among people. While this may be true for women... for men, celibacy rates and inceldom rates should be very similar. The assumption that almost all young men would rather have sex than not, in any given day, is heavily supported by science. As mentioned earlier, A study by Poortman and Liebroer found that only roughly 4% of singles are [[Volcel|volcels]], i.e. singles who stated to prefer their singlehood<ref>https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssresearch.2010.03.012</ref> Another notable study is the academic Hatfield and Clark study of college students<ref>https://www.sciencefriday.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/gender-differences-in-receptivity-to-sexual-offers.pdf</ref>. Certain students were asked to randomly approach members of the opposite gender if they wanted to have sex right now. Women accepted the casual sex offers 0% percent of the time in that study. While men accepted the casual sex offers 75% of the time when the offer was the most direct while the rest of the men apologized or gave valid excuses. This is just when men were asked at random by a random women too. The number would be even higher for both genders in less casual circumstances most likely. | Some say general rates of celibacy should not be used as rates for inceldom among people.

Some [[feminist]]s have claimed to reject (whatever rejected means in the face of such blatant facts) the methodology of the Hatfield and Clark study stating that the women do not know if they will orgasm or not and they do not know the men. It is not that brilliant of an observation though, as we already know women would have male-like acceptance of casual sex offers if the male offering were a celebrity. Women like [[statusmaxxing|status]]<ref>https://doi.org/10.1017/S0140525X00029939 </ref>. A lot.
