Another note is that they seem to all be autistic, with many of them exhibiting symptoms of severe depression. Most are also trans lesbians. Many seem to be cat/fox/puppygirls.
Conclusion: headpats are in order

"Aw cute puppygirls!" head pats
"Ew gross incels, yuck!" social stigma
The fact they're mostly trans take the appeal from me.
The difference being that the puppygirls aren't lashing out and demeaning others ... they're just bed rotting while watching yaoi
Lots of lonely guys aren't lashing out and demeaning others either, but people don't notice them because they're not lashing out and demeaning others. They still get labeled as incels though, and if they find that hurtful then people will absolutely shred them for it anyway.
Also, they'll be shamed for bed rotting, and shamed for watching yuri. No matter what they do, they'll be shamed for it. So it's honestly not surprising when a number of them end up lashing out.
Are people calling those who don't behave like assholes "incel" though?
And do you think that women are not judged if they behave in the femcel manner?
It seems like you're applying a double standard, there.
Yes, people do call even the ones who aren't being assholes "incels." It's a derogatory term that gets used against anyone who doesn't get laid. Like calling someone a "virgin." It's shitty, and it promotes toxic masculinity. It also objectifies women by implying that men need to "get p***y" in order to be worthy of basic respect.
And I'm tired of hearing this excuse that "it doesn't refer to literal involuntary celibates, it refers to redpilled misogynistic jerks." But that simply isn't true, because people definitely apply it to literal "involuntary celibates" and use it as an insult like calling someone a "virgin." It's childish and immature. Also, there are lots of misogynistic jerks who get laid. Focusing all your ire on "incels" misses the point entirely, lets those people off the hook, and perpetuates the issue by communicating the subtext that "you can be a misogynistic jerk as long as you get laid, and then we'll still respect you." If you can't see how that's toxic and detrimental to society, then I can't help you.
They're more likely to be fetishized, which is bad in a different way. But it certainly hasn't risen to the level of a cultural pastime like shaming incels has.
I'm not the one applying a double-standard. I'm pointing out the double-standard.
I never said "femcels should be shamed, and incels shouldn't be."
I said "femcels don't get shamed the same way incels do."
If the former is how you interpret the latter, that's on you. If I need to explicitly state what I meant, it's closer to this:
"Maybe nobody should be shamed for being lonely and having poor social skills, regardless of gender."
If the issue is misogyny, target the misogyny. Not the inability to get sex, because that is going to do nothing to address the misogyny.
Hmm yes they often are even when they are just complaining that they disdain the situation. I don't know about women though I don't know that many that are bed rotting
If they can look up Yaoi, bed rot, or even have the energy to complain about men, they are underemployed. I can't even think about sex without realizing I could probably pull it off, but my job would get in the way of it, as with anything. The workplace is our god, everything, even family is secondary, because you can't have family without work.
They'll be nice if you give them a pink monster and tell them they're a good girl.
I prefer white monster but yes
