Incels are called incels. Lonely guys are lonely guys. If you’re being called an incel, there’s a reason.

CADmonkey@lemmy.world 11 months agoYou guys are missing my point. Im not talking about incels, I’m talking about people who just call all lonely guys incels. The way everyone is happily downvoting me when I say this are proving me right.

I can literally call you anything right now in this comment, and there’d be a reason.
That “no smoke without fire” thing is disgusting.

No one does that.

We are all talking about incels. Nobody here has a problem with lonely guys. I think you’re missing everyone else’s point.

Sorry, I did miss the point. I’ve literally never seen it happen the way you describe it.

I have and experienced it. Though admittedly any traumatic experience often makes you see things which aren’t there.
TheDoctorDonna@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I am sorry you had to experience that, but it is very insightful and aware that your trauma would affect the perception.
Not saying this about you specifically ( I don’t know if you have things about you that you don’t like), but people who have things they don’t like about themselves also have a tendency to see criticism and insults about that particular thing where there are none. Like I used to be really over weight, so anytime anyone made jokes about something being large or about pigs or cows, I would internalize that and assume it was about my fatness because I hated that about myself.

Yes, that second part is true.
