I'm wondering if they would just pivot to some other external cause.

I doubt it. I knew guys like that back in the 80's and 90's when I was young. I wasnt too smooth with the ladies back then either, but I wasnt a total bitter little troll like they always are.

Yes it would.

Explain to me how it's cope when everyone says getting laid was easier in the 1990s.

Logically, it just makes sense. Good looking dudes weren't having sex with ugly women back then. They weren't going to waste their time hitting on them at bars and they didn't wanna be seen getting with an ugly women. Today, it's completely effortless and discrete.

If dating apps were banned, 3s and 4s would have to settle for me because good looking dudes aren't hitting on them and they wanna have sex anyway

Keep coping. You'd still be a bitter incel whining about something else.

The "incel" ideology and accompanying mindset would definitely be reduced, but low-status men who don't get women have always existed.

You don't think at this point they'd just pivot to some other bogeyman, leaving the ideology intact?

The whole "Incel" thing is massively tied to the internet... massively. But social media and dating apps are only a chunk of the internet, so... incel ideology would probably be able to spread through other internet avenues. I dunno if you count forums as social media or not.

I mean, how else are you gonna explain male sexlessness tripling in 10 years.

I would call it more of the internet in general becoming a substitute for IRL... same reason politics got so retarded. Make a thread asking some miscers, where did you meet your S/O, and 90% of the posts are going to be school, work, and Tinder. AKA forced socialization and internet apps. If you don't have A, you are reliant on B and their predatory model.

Not many people my age go outside and socialize for fun anymore... the internet is just way more convenient and and way more entertaining/addictive.

I had a girl in my kickball group (early 30s STEM professional) ask me what I was doing to meet girls. I was like "I solo hike, I go to party-beach bars..." She cut me off and said "LMAO, get on Bumble, that's the only way people meet any more."

Yeah, if social media has an effect, it's through this mechanism.

It takes a lot more courage and social skills to actually cold approach.


Literally nothing would change. Dudes that smash will smash. Dudes that don't, won't.


Girls are pretty easy to seduce/fukk in 2023.
