However, the term incel has a widely understood colloquial meaning which is synonymous not with all people who dont have sex, but with a particular subset of deeply maladjusted individuals who have not only only failed to find satisfying sexual and socially normative interactions, but who base their identity around blaming women for denying them sex which they feel entitled to. That sense of entitlement leads evolves into hatred, which leads them to form toxic online cliques whose adherents demonstrate deeply misogynistic behaviors such as bashing women, denigrating women's rights, and engaging in verbal and physical abuse against women.
When someone starts mouthing off on a gaming forum about how all women will say that men are raping them and that's why you should never have sex, or that women are inherently dumber than men and should be "put in their place", that person is not a simple virgin, they are an incel.
Of course you probably know all this, but I'm posting in any way for the edification of other forum readers.
