Particularly in case of young, solitary, male immigrants incel rates are presumably high due to the lack of communal integration, which seems to be important of relationship formation. | Particularly in case of young, solitary, male immigrants incel rates are presumably high due to the lack of communal integration, which seems to be important of relationship formation. | ||

As one can see, U.S. Whites are somewhat underrepresented on Braincels compared to U.S. Adults on Reddit overall, which has a 95% CI difference of 13-24 per cent points (P < 0.0001). | |||
The "other" races make up 8.8% of Reddit overall, but 33% on Braincels, which has a 95% CI difference of 13-24 per cent points (P < 0.0001). | |||
The most overrepresented races seem to be East-Asians and South-Asians, making up around 6% of the U.S. population, but around 19% on Braincels and around 13% on incels.co. This agrees with findings above about [[Scientific Blackpill#Being_an_Asian_male_in_the_USA_is_a_primary_predictor_of_.27never_being_kissed.27|kissless Asians]]. There is no evidence of Blacks or Latinos/Hispanics being overrepresented. | |||
Note: Braincels is nearly exclusively male different from the Pew Research samples, which may limit the accuracy of these estimates a bit. | |||
