Unpopular Opinion

Having taken some time to consider this, I do think it's both unpopular and wrong.

Yes, some women have ridiculous standards that make no sense, as do some men. I do agree women may be more likely to have hypocritical standards, because (at least for casual relationships) men do seem to have fewer standards.

But that doesn't mean they are involuntarily celibate. It means they are voluntarily celibate. They aren't saying that guys/women they want are rejecting them, they are saying they have standards that can't be met.

Are there some women who have higher standards than they, themselves, live up to - sure. But that's not what makes an incel.

An incel is someone who believes:

1. People of my preferred gender kind of suck, mostly
2. Despite mostly sucking, people of my preferred gender tend to have high standards <-- you are here
3. Those high standards exclude me, and I think that's unfair; it makes me angry that they won't give me the chance I deserve.
4. I'm tired of playing nice when none of them will give me the chance I deserve. I've written their entire gender off as trash, and my new hobby is constantly berating them.

People rarely say #3 and #4 out loud, so once you're at #2 -- which you are -- people are going to start making some assumptions.

And yes, there are some women past #3 and #4 themselves, sure. We've all heard the occasional "men are pigs," and that kind of intolerance shouldn't be accepted no matter who it comes from. But it's absolutely not many/most of us, and if you think so, you're either being overly critical or surrounding yourself with the wrong kinds of friends - both of which are on you and show you need to de-incel your thinking before you go off the deep end.

The term "incel" was actually created by a woman and she was referring to herself. I guess social media and/or MSM liked it more as a derogatory term for men. But women can definitely fall into the same toxic mentality that men can.

while expecting a man who has a career, refusing to drive and expecting men to chauffeur them around, expecting men to have a variety of friends and interests while doing nothing but watching TV all day, etc.

This is the most incel thing i've read in a while. I don't know a single woman like this. If you do, you're hanging around with the wrong crowd and that's on you. If you don't then you're just eating up incel bullshit to feel better about your own lackings.

The worst part is, calling out this inequality will 100% get any man labeled as an incel. We’re expected to either deal with it or be alone forever.

There's a reason your "opinion" is being labeled as that of an incel. It's because it's 100% Pure Grade A Incel Bullshit^tm

Simply having impossible, hypocritical standards does not make an incel.

See, no one would give a shit about incels if they quietly kept to themselves.

Unfortunately, incels tend to commit and encourage rape and murder.

Are the women you know murdering or raping men?

No?

Then it's a them problem.

You were doing good until you threw that last paragraph in there.
