I feel like the people who get really invested in "You can be an incel without being misogynistic" tend to just tell on themselves by the end of the conversation anyway. Even if that was true at one point, the people who most loudly and proudly call themselves incels (and even tbh most of the mentality behind identifying that way) should make you *not* want to identify that way even if you qualify as "wanting to have sex but not being successful with women".

It's not incorrect though. I am an incel but I have a lot of respect for women. I'm more distrustful towards men if anything. My father left me right during a difficult time in my childhood and I was raised by a single mother who taught me to respect people.

It is unfortunate that the term "incel" has another meaning today but I don't have an alternative term to represent my people, few as we may be. I don't feel represented by the "virgin" label. Perhaps we need a new label to distance ourselves from the brotherhood of dark incels.
