Is There a Difference Between Incels and Virgins?
I saw a really interesting post on Instagram yesterday about the fact that calling someone an incel or a virgin or a cook online is significantly more accepted than slut-shaming. If you were to call a girl on social media a slut or a whore, that would go down very badly. But if you were to accuse a guy of being a virgin, that would just be seen as a quippy insult. So, there are asymmetries in what is typically used and what's typically accepted, I think.
