The Donnelly Study defined incels as adults who fail to find a sexual partner for six months or more without choosing so.
The [[Donnelly]] Study defined incels as adults who fail to find a sexual partner for six months or more without choosing so.
There remains disagreement about whether this definition is appropriate due to conceivable loopholes. For example, [[Bluepill|Bluepillers]] often argue in bad faith about such definitions and say male incels could simply have gay sex or pay for a prostitute and, therefore, they are [[volcel|volcels]] and incels don't exist. Hence, a definition in good faith would include an addition that incels are adults who are overwhelmingly rejected by the ''members of the sex they are sexually attracted to''.
