I dunno, I thought it would be higher. I guess I'm just a slut surrounded by sluts (positive).
What do you think about the number? Does it surprise you? Does it surprise you that it surprises me? Did you expect it to be lower maybe? If so why?

I just find this interesting. No judgement (unless you want that you dirty little gremlin)

as a proud member of the volcel vanguard i do my best every day to lower this average sankara-salute

more serious

read some discussions further down the thread, it does suck how much having sex matters in this culture. If it werent for that, being a virgin wouldnt bother me in the slightest, since I'm (i think) somewhere on the ace/aro "spectrum" (is that the right word for it?). I do think it's a shame that "incel" has come to replace "misogynist" in common lingo, because it feels to me in someway also a repackage of "virgin" as insult as well. I will say, the vocel meme is probably one of my favorite things on hexbear, because it helps make feel like less of an outcast, lol

Interesting post, would've never considered how the terms here relate until you said it. Incels deserve the shit, and it's interesting to consider that we partially identify the cause of their misogyny with their virginity. It's probably true, but catches the volcel comrades with some Flak on the side.

Incel is still a good insult when it's a misogynist who WANTS sex but can't possibly have an intimate partner willingly have sex due to their misogyny. It pisses them off (sometimes) which is funny, and "misogynist" is often something they're proud of. But next time I use it I'll throw a "no shade to non-misogynyst and chill virgins*
