It is funny, cause banning "Incel" and "Virgin" insults is very pro-men in general as it is the man-hater types that tend to use the insults towards men. But Twitch's anti-male agenda becomes clear when "Simp" is banned, because Twitch wants to encourage simpdom cause it makes them money with simp donations to Twitch thots.

We will take action against the use of terms like ‘simp,’ ‘incel’ or ‘virgin’ specifically when they are being used to negatively refer to another person’s sexual practices. Using these terms on their own wouldn’t lead to an enforcement but we would take action if they were used repeatedly in a harassing manner

Translation: if you use these terms against the people we like, we will censor you. Feel free to use these terms against the people we don't like, unless we don't like you.

This is some incel simp crap.

I never got why virgin was meant to be an insult. Simp and incel cover the intention behind the intended insult.

Women play the role of decider in modern society. Therefore, a woman who is a poor judge of value is considered low-status (a slut), and a man who has universally been judged to be of low value (virgin, or more accurately, incel) is also low-status.

But then that would likely be used by the simps and incels as an insult. Whoever uses it as an insult would need to put women on a higher level. We can universally agree that simps and incels are pathetic/low-status because their existence revolves around the need for sex or attention, but a virgin is simply a person who hasn't had sex and there is nothing wrong with that.

An incel is a person that simply wasn't able to get into a relationship both romantic and sexual. "Incel = women hater" originated on reddit. And forgive me but the retarded cesspool called reddit doesn't get to decide the definition when they don't apply this evenly to all groups with their bias.

Sure, but you haven't been paying enough attention to the 50 years of incessant cultural propaganda to think as most people have been trained to - that we should fuck like animals, whenever the urge strikes.

Some of them are coming dangerously close to realizing what we've been telling them for years, you're going to wind up on the receiving end of that censorship, incel is the left's favorite insult these days.

Wait, have people started dredging up virgin to use as an insult now? My word it has been a good decade or two since that has been a trendy put-down. Maybe we'll see the return of square, nerd, dweeb and geek.

Virginity is a virtue, though.
