in societies like ours sex truly represents a second system of differentiation, completely independent of money; and as a system of differentiation it functions just as mercilessly. The effects of these two systems are, furthermore, strictly equivalent. Just like unrestrained economic liberalism, and for similar reasons, sexual liberalism produces phenomena of absolute pauperization. Some men make love every day; others five or six times in their life, or never. Some make love with dozens of women; others with none. It's what's known as `the law of the market'. In an economic system where unfair dismissal is prohibited, every person more or less manages to find their place. In a sexual system where adultery is prohibited, every person more or less manages to find their bed mate. In a totally liberal sexual system certain people have a varied and exciting erotic life; others are reduced to masturbation and solitude. Economic liberalism is an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society. Sexual liberalism is likewise an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society ... Certain people win on both levels; others lose on both.

This is just ressentiment projected unto the rest of the world. Some people don’t have sex, and don’t want to (i.e. Monks, Newton, Kant, vocels). Some people have sex and it doesn’t change anything. Others do and it changes everything. This is a mentality that accepts the terms of the “domain of struggle”. It’s not written in stone, it has to be accepted.

>Some people don’t have sex, and don’t want to (i.e. Monks, Newton, Kant, vocels)
You're actually delusional if you think monks don't want to have sex. Most of them become monks because they fail in regular life so they decide to dedicate themselves to the spiritual one. There's plenty of meditations to control sexual desire and it's one of the hardest things to let go of on the way to enlightenment
Kant and Newton were schizoids and they both probably still had sex. Prostitution was super common in their time.
Schizoids tend to not want sex but they develop all sorts of other problems (look at Ted).
There's 3 types of volcels. Delusional volcels like some MGTOWS and what not, this group obviously still wants sex, they're just in denial. Religious volcels, this group also still wants sex but they don't do it because they're afraid of burning in the after-life. Then there's volcels who might have had some trauma in relation to sex like rape or molestation, this group is the only one who truly doesn't want sex, but like the schizoids there's a lot of mental issues that, if resolved, would open the way for regular sexual desire.

>Some people have sex and it doesn’t change anything. Others do and it changes everything.
I don't know what this is supposed to mean. Being sex deprived is a universal shit thing to have to endure.
>But incels won't change just because they lose their virginity hurr durr
Well no shit. The damage is already done. Plus no one instantly goes from incel to chad. They go from incel to incel-who-got-lucky.

>This is just ressentiment projected unto the rest of the world
No. It's the truth.

>>14605299
>Girl's standards are lower than incels think
Most incels are retarded and they believe the 80/20 rule has a deterministic thing. I.e a 5/10 guy can literally NEVER fuck a 6/10 because by definition she is going for 8+. This is obviously stupid. But there's no denying girls have the dating game by the balls. And they can afford to be picky

Yes. This is what everyone has been doing since the dawn of time. You’re just entitled because you’ve been told by pop media that things are different. Get over it.

inceldom is a contradictory torment. I have no sympathy for. You cannot at once be disillusioned by love and hurt its by its longing. This is like an atheist mad at god or child rebeling against his father. Michel can speak to a specific feeling of pathetic and bitterness, but thats all there is.

very true. but have fun meeting people if you live in a big city. its alienating as fuck. also trying to find a girl that you actually connect with makes it much harder.

you would think that with such a "connected society" people would be "more connected," but everyone, and that includes girls, are alienated. i think it's like 18-25% of girls in their 20's don't have sex at all either.

"chad" is a miserable fuck also. do you think fucking and buying shit amounts to anything worthwhile? lust/hedonism always leads to suffering.

What makes it difficult is that such feelings can never be successfully explained to women. I think this is because our genitals encourage entirely different viewpoints for engaging with the world. The vagina is fundamentally utilitarian and makes every woman feel that their pleasure maximization is righteous while the penis is deontological in nature.

I dont think of the penis itself as deontological but I like that idea. do you think "chad" would then have a consequential penis?

Yes. They have a blast. They get to go out, make out with a bunch of girls and go home to plow a 9/10, while chumps seethe with envy. They are respected by their peers and adored by women.

The first part is true, the second part is not. There is certainly a large section (perhaps even the great majority) of incels who have the capacity for sexual and romantic relationships, but who simply find it difficult to put themselves out there due to crippling schizoid or autistic personalities. That said, there is also a section of incels which really are just too short and ugly. But this section is much smaller.

>> No.14611276

I'm using a hypothetical to prove a point. "Love" can't happen without physical attraction. So good luck finding someone who loves you (romantically) if you're ugly.
