One study found mating performance was significantly related to happiness and life satisfaction for both sexes.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Mating_performance_is_significantly_related_to_happiness_and_life_satisfaction</ref> | One study found mating performance was significantly related to happiness and life satisfaction for both sexes.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Mating_performance_is_significantly_related_to_happiness_and_life_satisfaction</ref> | ||
The authors suggest that a large population lacking sexual activity could negatively affect the economy due to a higher rate of demotivation and depressed people being a burden on welfare institutions. Indeed, the happiness of a country's population might boost its economic productivity.<ref>http://doi.org/10.1007/s10902-019-00074-1</ref> | |||
Life satisfaction (LS) and relationship satisfaction (RS) are moderately to strongly correlated, and RS affects LS stronger than vice-versa. A bad relationship can be detrimental to life satisfaction, hence any correlation of LS and singlehood should be expected to be weakened by that.<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4059345/</ref> | |||
Sex is also known to be the most pleasurable activity of all activities.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Sex_is_the_most_pleasurable.2C_joyous.2C_and_meaningful_human_experience</ref> | Sex is also known to be the most pleasurable activity of all activities.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Sex_is_the_most_pleasurable.2C_joyous.2C_and_meaningful_human_experience</ref> | ||
Further, having sex boosts well-being on the following 48 hours ("sexual afterglow").<ref>https://doi.org/10.1037/emo0000324</ref> One study summarizes: | |||
{{quote|Beyond positive and negative affect, sex has implications formeaning in life. On days when people had sex, a greater sense of meaning in life was experienced the following day. Meaning in lifeoften arises when an individual feels their basic need for belonging is met with someone (Hicks & King, 2009; Lambert et al., 2013).Sex requires a level of vulnerability and trust that readily facilitates opportunities for deep, meaningful social connection (Baumeister& Leary, 1995; Deci & Ryan, 2000).<ref>https://doi.org/10.1177/0956797617691361</ref>}} | |||
A survey study found that penile–vaginal intercourse is associated with health, but masturbation and anal sex are not.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Penile.E2.80.93vaginal_intercourse_is_associated_with_health.2C_but_masturbation_is_not</ref> This suggests, inceldom has adverse effects, and cannot be remedied by masturbation, i.e. the issue of inceldom is not merely the lack of genital stimulation as [[bluepillsplaining|bluepillsplainers]] like to claim. | A survey study found that penile–vaginal intercourse is associated with health, but masturbation and anal sex are not.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Penile.E2.80.93vaginal_intercourse_is_associated_with_health.2C_but_masturbation_is_not</ref> This suggests, inceldom has adverse effects, and cannot be remedied by masturbation, i.e. the issue of inceldom is not merely the lack of genital stimulation as [[bluepillsplaining|bluepillsplainers]] like to claim. | ||

One study found having many sex partners is only weakly related to health.<ref>https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.1098/rsos.160603</ref> Also physical attractiveness is not very much related to health.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Attractive_people_are_perceived_much_more_positively_than_they_really_are</ref> This may serve as evidence that it is indeed sexual frustration causing illness and suffering than vice-versa. Out of various various diseases, depression is the most related to ugliness,<ref>https://doi.org/10.1016/j.evolhumbehav.2014.06.004</ref>, with 20% of ugly people and 11% of attractive people suffering from depression. This pattern may though rather be caused by social exclusion due to ugliness than ugly people being inherently more prone to depression. | One study found having many sex partners is only weakly related to health.<ref>https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.1098/rsos.160603</ref> Also physical attractiveness is not very much related to health.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Attractive_people_are_perceived_much_more_positively_than_they_really_are</ref> This may serve as evidence that it is indeed sexual frustration causing illness and suffering than vice-versa.

Baumeister concludes quality is more important that quantity. "Having two as opposed to no close relationships may make a world of difference to the person's health and happiness; having eight as opposed to six may have very little consequence. Also more that two hours of socializing per day appears to have diminishing returns.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0092656618300369</ref> | |||
