Incel Deviance Subculture's Impact on Society
Introduction
Incel is a word used to describe a group of men that get to be celibate involuntarily. They proclaim to be denied this right as a result of various cultural shifts. Incel also believes that because of their biological essentialism, they are positioned at the lowest in the social hierarchy and that this greatly contributes to their failure to find a sex partner (Papadamou et al., 2020). The term Incel was coined by a Canadian woman, Alana, in the 1990s, and its major objective was for her to portray how hard it is for her to find a sexual partner (Sugiura, 2021). Thus, the Incel's perspective and beliefs in the '90s vary entirely from what the Incel deviance subculture is associated with in today's world.
Today, Incels believe that the purpose of every human life is to produce and have sex. However, they are blocked from even getting a sex partner because of their monstrous appearance. As a result, this group of individuals deems themselves undermined and that women are their major enemy (O'Malley, 2022). Consequently, they deem women as evil beings who deny them their basic right to reproduce and have sex. Furthermore, because members of this group are frustrated, the disappointment encourages them to engage in disturbing behavior, such as Pederasty (Papadamou et al. 2020). The topic of Incel deviance is a critical issue that needs to be discussed because, in the modern era of social media, the group continues to grow (Ging, 2019). People who deem themselves ugly continue to join together and spread this ideology. As a result, women continue to be demonized, and this may lead to other adverse effects for women in society. Therefore, the paper will describe how the Incel community affects the local dating community, why the group continues to grow, and some of the positive effects it has on society.
A Literature Review
Reasons why does the Incel Group continue to grow
Incel deviance Subcultures continue to grow globally because of the availability of the internet, which makes it possible for people from different parts of the world to speak to each other and share similar ideas (Papadamou et al., 2020). Additionally, individuals feel that they can speak their minds without fear through social media. This encourages individuals in these social groups to be brutal with their words since they are not physically present. Furthermore, the idea that manhood is a precarious social status that is difficult to attain and constantly under threat encourages the group to grow (Ging, 2019). According to Sugiura (2021), individuals belonging to this group deem womanhood as only a function of permanent biological maturity; hence, women do not have to do much to earn and own it. As a result of this thinking, many individuals continue to join the Incel group, believing that they are earning the right to be called men.
World View of Incel
According to Sugiura (2021), various Incel research indicates one unique aspect adopted by individuals in this group is the "the black pill." In other aspects of the manosphere, a red pill is used symbolically t...
