=== Sexlessness worse for men? === | === Sexlessness worse for men? === | ||
In addition to the greater prevalence of male inceldom, men may also more easily be sexually frustrated because they have a higher [[libido|sex drive]]. For example, men are much more likely to agree to invitations to sex with a random stranger (~5% vs ~65%).<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Men_like_61.9.25_of_female_profiles.2C_women_like_only_4.5.25_of_male_profiles</ref> | In addition to the greater prevalence of male inceldom, men may also more easily be sexually frustrated because they have a higher [[libido|sex drive]].

Yet, the stark difference in sexual motivation should imply that women, but not men, can get sex easily if they wanted. | ||
Some [[feminist|feminists]] have claimed the comparison in acceptance to invitations to sex is not a fair measure of how much women suffer from sexlessness because women need to know the men first to be safe. However, there is evidence that women do engage in very adventurous sex with no hope for reciprocity or investment on part of the man, namely if the man has exceptionally [[statusmaxxing|high status]]<ref>https://doi.org/10.1017/S0140525X00029939</ref> and/or is exceptionally good looking ([[sexy sons hypothesis]]) and even abusive/violent men ([[hybristophilia]]).

Feminists have a point in that women have more [[Bateman's principle|parental investment]], but phenomena like sex tents and sexy sons suggest women exploit their ability to choose from many men somewhat, so their inceldom seems more [[fake depression|self-inflicted]]. Women are naturally [[female solipsism|oblivious]] to these facts. | Some [[feminist|feminists]] have claimed the comparison in acceptance to invitations to sex is not a fair measure of how much women suffer from sexlessness because women need to know the men first to be safe.
