No mass murderers have been users of incel forums. Neither [[4chan]] nor [[PUAhate]] have self-identified as incel forums, even though some incels use or used those sites. Current major incel internet forums are: [[Incels.co]], [[Facebook's Incelistan]], [[Incelistan.net]], [[Love-shy dot com|love-shy.com]], [[Incelswithouthate]], and [[Foreveralone]]. Roughly [[demographics of inceldom#Numbers|20-30% of American men between the ages of 18-30 are incels]].

Roughly [[demographics of inceldom#Numbers|15-30% of American men between the ages of 18-30 are incels]], but around a third of this is 18-20 year olds.


A poll from braincels shows that whites constitute only 28% of that forums population, with the largest racial demographic being South Asian (e.g., Indian).<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Braincels/comments/8mhyo7/results_of_the_rbraincels_race_poll</ref> The most recent poll by incels.co showed that 56% of its members were white.<ref>https://incels.co/threads/survey-results-for-october-2019.147774/#lg=_xfUid-1-1561817076&slide=0</ref>
A polls on [[Braincels]] and [[incels.co]] show that whites constitute only half the forum populations, with East Asians and South Asian (e.g., Indian) being overrepresented (see [[demographics#Race|Demographics § Race]]).
 
For comparison, surveys on Reddit of the general userbase tend to show 80% white users overall.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/TheoryOfReddit/comments/3dct7x/why_is_reddit_so_white/</ref> Thus we can approximate that the typical Reddit population is 1.4-3.6 times more white than incel groups.
