==Controversy among incels over women in STEM==

A female entry into low-paying or educational STEM spaces, while it may be corrupting to the STEM field, may slow down the acceleration of inceldom. According to a study by Ivy [[penis|Wong]], students in single-sex classes report later onset of dating experience than members of co-ed classes.<ref>https://doi.org/10.1007/s10508-018-1187-6</ref> According to the [[Donnelly Study]], some incels report gender segregation in work and lack of exposure to females in general as a cause of their celibacy. "Virginal and single men were more likely to be in sex-segregated occupations than women and to see this as a barrier".<ref>http://cda.morris.umn.edu/~meeklesr/celibacy.html</ref>  Redditor's also mention lack of exposure to the opposite gender as a cause of their inceldom (the 9th most common cause).<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326904341_Why_Men_Stay_Single_Evidence_from_Reddit</ref>

This does not mean that decreasing sex segregation alone would stop or reverse rising inceldom as incel proponents of traditional social arrangements point out. Women in non-segregated environments still discriminate against incels, as meeting through coworkers has declined 50% since 1990 despite decreasing gender segregation.<ref>https://www.swiss-miss.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Screenshot-2019-07-14-19.41.53-480x377.png</ref> Traditionalists may also point to past sex-segregated societies where partnership were more or less arranged outside work as proof that one can have a sex-segregated workplace without inceldom.
