We're living in a 'Male Loneliness Epidemic.' At least, that's the story some men are telling us - and themselves.
Proudly identifying as involuntary celibates, or incels, they're unable to find a partner, and believe that women and societal norms are to blame. Some swear they're victims of modern feminism, others have a "black pill" philosophy - meaning, in their minds, their lack of romantic success is entirely genetic or unchangeable. Whatever the reason, these so-called incels claim to be suffering alone through no fault of their own. But not everyone is buying it...
Someone asked netizens with incel friends or acquaintances, "What is the actual problem that they just don’t get?" and thousands of people didn't hold back. There are, according to the comments, men who have wildly warped ideas about women, there's one who'll only settle for a "petite, Japanese virgin," another who is apparently a "straight-up creep" and many others who simply don't understand that the call is coming from inside the house. Bored Panda has put together the most telling responses that pour cold water on the lies incels tell themselves and us.
