I've never met a "femcel" - as in a woman with poor social skills who stays inside and games a lot, perhaps lacking optimism about their romantic prospects and overall destiny - in my life so the whole concept did strike me as weird. Seeing the "femcel" subreddits, twitter pages and Instagram pages, all it reminded me of were the toxic girls from my hometown who essentially scared off new prospects by being so rude to them and CLEARLY chose their lifestyle very early on.
I therefore think femcel is a misnomer. I think generally women aren't getting hung up on men in an incel-ly way - the ones that do skip straight to stalker serial killer lady - I think women are good at socialising and always have some sort of support system.
Classic case of survivorship bias, that's because the have poor social skills and stay inside. Unless you breaking and entering their homes you can't find them.
I'm simply autistic, trans, and in a rural area. My "prospects" are extremely limited, and my poor social skills would inhibit me even if they weren't.
I'm in the femcel to get hugboxed and encouraged that I'll find someone someday if I really want to, and to do the same for others.
I can't speak for all of us, but I actually really like boys; I think they're cute :3
You are generalizing quite a bit, aren’t you?
That's what makes the world go round.
...No they're not?
