1. a leftist rhetorical device used to shame, functions similarly to 'fag' except politically reversed.
Meant to imply that the target can't get laid, whilst possessing some form of frustrated and toxic masculinity. This attempts to "redefine normal" through feminism; to enforce political correctness by removing anything remotely resembling misogyny from anyone's expression (including conservative opinions); and to socially enforce feminine moral standards in general.
Some rigid and paranoid feminists will assume that a normal guy is an incel just because of how he looks, similarly to how some religious people might fear that a goth kid is a satanist and school shooter.

2. a male who actually can't get laid, and actually hates women because of it. Tends to get mad at women who won't show him attention, instead of actually understanding and remedying the situation. Shows violent overtones towards women in his mental unwellness, and is the socially bottom-tiered bogeyman who puts reactive society into a moral panic. There is a fringe subculture which uses words like "foid" to describe women, and is often associated with the black pill (not to be confused with red pill).
"He said something I didn't like, so I'm gonna make sure that people won't think he's cool and he won't be socially dangerous. Hopefully he'll be so humiliated that he won't dare to be inappropriate ever again"

"He's dating my friend and is 6 years older and i don't like that, so i assumed and told everyone he's an incel despite how it's fully consensual and would in reality be easier for him to date women his own age"

"He said right-wing opinions and his nonconformity is attracting women, so I have to kill his status before this gets out of hand"

Elliot Rodger was an actual incel.

Guys that are unable to get girls as a result of their creepiness, lack of personality, entitlement, and poor social skills.

A person, often male, who is involuntarily celibate, or in other words, is not able to find a sexual partner. Typically this is due to poor stature or appearance, social difficulties, or a combination of both. Should be more broadly defined to include those who cannot find meaningful romantic relationships. Censored by public platforms and forums completely as of 2020, cuz freedom of speech. On and off their communities have been quarantined as often as a COVID-19 patient. Often seen as "dAnGeRoUs" and misogynistic due to the crimes of a couple full blown Aspie nutjobs who had connections with the group. The whole community has kind of disappeared since 2020. Although the term has existed for decades, incels came to light as a source of public outrage in 2019.

While inceldom can be relieved through prostitution in areas where it is legal, it is very costly and does not rival at all with the emotional intimacy of a committed relationship. Many incels also consider suicide; while this is technically a solution, it should be thought through carefully, because it cannot be reversed.

An appropriate solution to severe cases of inceldom is proper coping mechanisms. This could include a job, hobbies such as video games or music, or nihilism. The eventual goal is to accept ones fate in the genetic lottery and make living without the validation of a romantic partner as bearable as possible.
Karen: Ugh if only incels just showered their personalities more and stopped being mass murdering rapists!

Diane: Tell me about it. They're so ugly! LOL

the word for some bitch ass who doesn’t respect women. also called an involuntary celibate, which basically means they can’t get laid. because they happen to be disgusting idiots who can’t make connections with other people. Since they can’t cope with that, they simply blame women. they say that women are too picky or that women should stop having rights simply because it suits their wants better. to put it simply, incels are horny dumb-fucks who don’t understand how to be a decent person…literally the bar is so low that it’s underground and they can’t do that. just be a decent not-creepy person and be courteous to other people and the right people will come along. it’s not women’s faults it’s yours. literally grow up you asshole
person 1: i’m a dunce who thinks women are to blame for my unwanted virginity.
person 2: you’re an incel then…that’s so weird bruh.
