Currently the largest dataset on sexual activity is the [http://gss.norc.org/get-the-data NORC GSS] (the General Social Survey of the National Organization for Research at the University of Chicago). This is a long running social survey in the U.S. which every two years asks a representative group of thousands of Americans questions about their lives. GSS data has shown that the rate of young U.S. men who did not have sex in the past year has skyrocketed, now being at 28%, substantially higher than it was a decade ago (around 10%). There are some indications that ethnic men are more affected by inceldom and have experienced a greater increase in inceldom, especially East Asians and South Asians.

There are also some indications that women are slightly less affected by the rise of inceldom. For further discussion see [[demographics]] article. See also [[causes of inceldom]].

A small informal poll on Reddit's [[/r/braincels]] suggested 28% of incel users are Caucasians (N = 75) though the result was distrusted due to a suspiciously high amount of Asians/Indians. A larger poll on Braincels from 2018 (N = 1267) suggested 54.8% are Caucasians. A poll from 2019 by the incel forum [[incels.co]] indicated 57.4% (N = 400), and in a second one in 2019 it was 56.1% (N = 550). Taken together, one gets 55.6% (N = 2217), so very close to Braincels.

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.
Other characteristics of [[incels.co]] users from site surveys include:
* 78% report constantly suffering from depression, anxiety, and stress.
* 82% have considered suicide.
* 62% have considered surgery to improve their looks.
* 77% report being healthy weight or underweight (only 23% report being overweight, which is far less than the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_body_mass_index general western population average]).
* 57% report suffering from a medical condition like autism or a physical disability that impairs their normal daily functions.
