An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
im technically incel I guess but I don't hate women does that count. Ive had relationships in the past but nothing fulfilling and i was kinda acceptable back then. also i think that website is lowkey garbage, blackpill is pretty real but nothing comes from hating other people. i used to go on looksmax but they are even more hostile to each other than people irl are to them, they should know the pain yet they still decide to bully whoever they deem to be below them and then complain they get treated by shit by people they deem themselves to be below to. why should i be hateful of people who hate me when i hate myself just as much. its just very painful to think about i guess. world is cruel i guess. what are u currently coping with?

One of the cofounders of SS did in fact also create incels.is. This is a known fact and not like a big secret or anything.
I'm literally a 31 year old kissless virgin incel male but I don't feel the need to make an incels.is account. I'm pretty sure if I signed up I'd get dogged on for being a 6ft tall fakecel and still being too incompetent to even get a single date.
I did try to sign up once a few years ago but I think I stopped because there was a rule saying you can't even make fictional female characters into your profile picture and that's pretty ridiculous to me. I don't hate women or anyone of the female gender for my circumstances anyway. I know they're my fault and that the world would probably be a better place for women and non incel men if all people like me were just dead so that's why I prefer being here anyway.

Yeah, you can be an incel without hating women. Inceldom isn't about hating women anyway. It literally just means that you cannot attract a woman due to factors (genetic) out of your control.
I can understand why you think .IS is garbage too. Most of these edgy posts you see are either made by underage users in a phase or ragebaiters trying to attract attention from redditors, so it's nothing to worry about. Incel violence is statistically rare.
Also, i cope with bedrotting and binge watching random tv shows or anime
stuff like that
Wbu?

Not coping anymore, only this website. I also think im lowkey decent genetics just grew wrong, makes it harder. Im less tall than projected and i was giga goodlooking as a child, everyone trrated me nicely. Sucks.

They would ban you. SaSu is the only site that the creators made that allows women, at least from what I know. The rest of the forums will ban you if they find out about you being a woman, including incel.is. Don't know why you want to join that site anyways since, based on the bit that I've seen of it, it's quite vile in nature.

I don't fully agree. Incel was a term created (by a woman, ironically) to talk about the lack of sex and relationships that some people had due to external reasons. Often because of an physical or mental illness. The original project was inclusive and it could have been helpful, I don't really know too much about it.
However, currently inceldom is a term for a specific subculture connected to several online communities. Incel is someone who belongs to that subculture. Every incel is a virgin (or similar), but not every virgin is a incel.
And this subculture is pretty toxic. There are a lot of incels that have toxic mentalities about women and relationships in general, even if they are good people. And there are a lot that are just not good people. You say that an incel is a person who can't attract a partner due to factors out of their control. But a lot of them don't attract women because they are assholes or, at least, emotionally immature.
For example, I have been a virgin all my life. It wasn't genetic, but I had a bad childhood, so it was out of my control. I hate that, even if I recover, I have already permanently missed some experiences I would only be able to experience when I was younger. But I don't consider myself an incel, because I don't identify with that subculture. Why would I? There are so many people that are lonely and virgin-ish, and only a small percentage of them are incels.
You can still consider yourself an incel if you want, even if you don't agree with most of them, but... why? If you say to a empathetic person in reasonable circumstances (to a potential friend, or online) that you never had any kind of relationship for X reason, they could empathize with you and try to comfort you. If you tell them that you are an incel, however, they will probably consider it a red flag.

Honestly funeral cry's posts have kinda made me celibate a little like I don't want to give the possible significant other the grief of losing me especially when they don't know how bad I am because I a pathetic piece of shit hid it from them
My only possibility is like a fwb deal

I kind of compare it to being Christian and being homophobic. Nothing about worshipping Jesus Christ says you have to hate gay or trans people, in fact he'd probably not condone that at all. And yet the typical perception of Christianity as a whole has been tainted with the idea that followers have to be against homosexuality, even amongst the followers themselves. Obviously you can still be devout and love God without carrying any hate in your heart and not even in an "oh I actually pity them" kind of way but definitely people are still going to make the association because of what they've seen before.
While yes, it would probably be more helpful to not identify as an incel, to me I feel it's disingenuous to pretend I'm not one as long as the incel status is true. The same way I presume a true follower of Christ would have to feel about being forced to hide their beliefs just because of what the social environment around them says. That said there are still some differences I'd say and I would actually argue that denying one's incel status could actually be more harmful than accepting and confronting it. Obviously if I stop being one I'll no longer call myself one but until that stops being true, then I just can't hide who I really am.

The problem with this is that the incel status is not true. It's just a made up term. You can't say that you are technically an incel because incel is not a technical term. What you are is a virgin. It's not like you really are in celibacy, anyway, that's something really different to simply not having sex.
It's like saying that you are a skinhead because you are bald. Or a furry just because you are really really hairy. That's not how words work.

All terms are made up. That's how human language works. The definition of furry also happens to actually be quite flexible. There are actually many negative associations with that term too. Not all furries are zoophiles, hell not all of them even like to dress up or have a furry name/identity they just like anthropomorphic characters platonically. That's actually another really good example of a label society loves to misjudge due to prominent bad examples.
Honestly I'd rather call myself an incel than a virgin because saying I'm a virgin makes it seem more like it's not my fault when it reality it totally is.
