Unbelievably, he then wrote

Yep, that first word is key.

If it's so unbelievable, then isn't she admitting that all their crying about 'patriarchy' is just nonsense? Otherwise, it would be eminently believable.

But did it create a firestorm on the Internet?

""Incel is a term short for "involuntary celibate," which began as a misogynistic internet subculture."

Look, I am assuming that most people don't actually call themselves an "incel." What ever happened to being able to self identify?

They needed a term that had a harsher negative stigma to it. Some people choose to retain virginity but incel implies loser and can include non-virgins on a losing streak.

That's how it started [Alana's Involuntary Celibacy Project] but it was co-opted as a term to specifically target men despite it being applicable to anyone fulfilling the requirements. One particular group often overlooked here are those who are married and in "dead bedroom" territory after years of no action so it isn't even limited to those who are single.

What, you're expecting journalists to do actual work, instead of finding something and Twitter and writing a crappy 'article' about it?

The average uneducated woman has a massive in group preference and desire to throw away all evidence to protect her sisters.

This "news" article is retarded, but it also shows the absolutely pitiful state of "men". Why are you chasing an obvious whore with children on a dating app? I can't think of a worse way to find a woman. And the red flags are all over the place.

This is why women are getting worse. They can do the most evil, base, gross things and they will be rewarded for it instead of shunned as they should be. On top of that she's a writer for The Guardian and The Washington Post, and not even attractive...

At least if she were a supermodel I would roll my eyes but still "get it". This is just sad all around.

What do dating apps do for you that you can’t do without? You have better odds just meeting women in daily life imo.

You shouldn’t be chasing them at all, but a dating app as far as I can tell is made for hookups. The only purpose is to see how attractive someone is so you can sleep with them or not. That’s not a good start to any relationship.

If you only meet women to have sex and move on, I could see it being useful.

Dude's acting pathetic but so is she. "Look, Look what I have to deal with, the nerve!". Probably wouldn't have mentioned it without the single Mom comment, which probably stung enough to write an article on it. So few good journalists, let alone women journalists.
