Lol. Redditors throw around "incel" the same way that 14 year old boys threw around words like "gay" back in the early 2000s. It's a label that elicits an "ick" factor and makes people feel the need ...

I think it's historically, Men have been the ones to speak up and ask a girl out on a date. Girls usually let the man engage in that process. Like an conservative chivalry type thinking. So in that se...

I don’t think it’s something that should be brought up in this sub honestly. I do think women have it slightly easier in some ways but that doesn’t make their stutter any less of an issue. Men are exp...
