			<description><![CDATA[This question is pretty elusive if you think about it. Straight incels have relied on a coincidence of events to craft their definition, and for the exceptions, they must use patchwork explanation. But precisely because we are gaycels, we approach this question from a different perspective.<br />
Incels define inceldom as the involuntary lack of sex, and therefore, they claim, gaycels aren't real incels, because finding a male sexual partner is much easier than finding a female sexual partner.<br />
There's 2 points that must be addressed:<br />
<br />
Firstly, the fact that sex qua sex should be sufficient to escape a condition of inceldom. Straight incels claim this is the case, but they're not consistent with this supposed axiom; if they were, they would have to consider virtually all incels as volcels, and therefore fakcels, because prostitution is a thing: pretty much anyone can hire a prostitute to lose his virginity; they retort by claiming that hiring a prostitute doesn't qualify, some of them even calling it a form of masturbation. But why is that? <br />
I think the answer is the lack of romantic desire, as the prostitute is only doing what she's doing, in the pursuit of something which has nothing to do with you, i.e.her own enrichment. She has no interest in doing what she's doing with you: you're perfectly fungible with any other customer. <br />
Let's take now the case of gay hookups: could one say there's any romantic desire in them? Maybe, but generally no, there's no romantic desire in a gay hookup with a total stranger who'll probably ghost you once he finishes up inside of you. The incels might say, that at least there's desire in a gay hookup, as the sexual partner chose you; but what kind of desire is that? <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">it is desire for their own satisfaction, not desire for you</span>: you're nothing but an improved fleshlight, a fungible cocksleeve; there's absolutely no interest in you beyond that which someone might have in a disposable sex toy. Can you really say you graduated inceldom if this is the closest thing you can get to a romantic relationship? I don't think so. <br />
<br />
Secondly, some gaycels might not even be able to achieve something like a hookup: I am one such example, as due to my Avoidant Personality Disorder (AvPD) I am literally unable to even set up a hookup, let alone showing up to one. I cannot even make friends, so I don't foresee ever being capable of finding a male partner. <br />
Some other might be so mentally ill and so repulsive, that the only hookup they could get may be some married old man, 3 times their age, and possibly get infected with AIDS. <br />
<br />
So not only it is demonstrably false to claim that all gaycels could easily hook up with a suitable partner, but even if that weren't the case, it's self evident how sex qua sex isn't by itself even sufficient to graduate inceldom.<br />
So while the straight incels may have hypergamy to blame for their inability to find a partner, and it is a real and pervasive phenomenon, which has indeed doomed many young straight men to lifelong sexlessness but, most importantly, also loneliness, we gaycels have other problems, but which lead to the same effect: lifelong loneliness, never being actually desired, at best being someone's disposable sex toy. <br />
The causes for these issues aren't yet clear to me, as I have yet to explore the issue thoroughly, but I'm hoping new insights will result from this thread.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

Note that moderators will consider rules on a case-by-case basis.<ul class="mycode_list"><li><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Do not LARP; there is a difference between withholding your experiences and pretending that they never happened.<br />
 <br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Behavior:</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Do not persecute, harass, or attack others.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not troll, bait, proselytize, post platitudes, mass tag users, or necropost (i.e., do not post in inactive threads older than ~1 month unless you have something to contribute - plain agreement, mere quoting, and meaningless one-liners don't qualify as contributing).<br />
 <br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Accounts:</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>You should only have one account, don't make more. Do not share your account, or post on behalf of other users.<br />
 <br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Content:</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Do not post low effort, spam, advertisement, or in all-caps.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Use the [NSFW] tag if your thread has shocking content, but use it sparingly.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not post illegal content. If in doubt, don't post it.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not sexualize minors in any way, shape, or form.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not post animal abuse content.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not post AI generated content (spam)<br />
 <br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
These rules are very flexible. You VILL be warned or banned if you attempt to circumvent any of them.<br />
<br />
Please also read our terms and rules and privacy policy for more information on data and content. By using this site you agree to all our policies and rules.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;" class="mycode_align"><span style="color: #b8312f;" class="mycode_color"><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><span style="font-size: 1pt;" class="mycode_size">FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION</span></span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">I have an inquiry or proposal, where can I reach you?</span><br />
Email boards@gaycels.org<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Why are the rules so unusual?</span><br />
This is a forum for men who can't get a partner and feel sad about it. Seeing romantically successful people brag about their experiences on the forum would be insulting, and would only exacerbate the issue.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Can I block users?</span><br />
Yes.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">How can I stay safe online?</span><br />
The same way you do anywhere else: Don't post personal information (name, address, phone, email, pictures, etc), unless you are comfortable exposing that information to the whole internet. If you want to go a step further, you can post with a proxy or a VPN.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Why was X user banned?</span><br />
We do not announce reasons for warnings or bans, but you can try asking the user yourself. Otherwise, use the ban megathread in Offtopic.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">What is low effort?</span><br />
It is content that is unrelated to a thread, posted for memetic value, or spam-like in nature. Examples: an emote reply, quoting someone and adding nothing else, one-word replies, and many other variations. The content might as well not have been posted.]]></description>

<br />
Note that moderators will consider rules on a case-by-case basis.<ul class="mycode_list"><li><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Do not LARP; there is a difference between withholding your experiences and pretending that they never happened.<br />
 <br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Behavior:</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Do not persecute, harass, or attack others.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not troll, bait, proselytize, post platitudes, mass tag users, or necropost (i.e., do not post in inactive threads older than ~1 month unless you have something to contribute - plain agreement, mere quoting, and meaningless one-liners don't qualify as contributing).<br />
 <br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Accounts:</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>You should only have one account, don't make more. Do not share your account, or post on behalf of other users.<br />
 <br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Content:</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Do not post low effort, spam, advertisement, or in all-caps.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Use the [NSFW] tag if your thread has shocking content, but use it sparingly.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not post illegal content. If in doubt, don't post it.<br />
 <br />
</li>
<li>Do not sexualize minors in any way, shape, or form.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">I have an inquiry or proposal, where can I reach you?</span><br />
Email boards@gaycels.org<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Why are the rules so unusual?</span><br />
This is a forum for men who can't get a partner and feel sad about it. Seeing romantically successful people brag about their experiences on the forum would be insulting, and would only exacerbate the issue.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Can I block users?</span><br />
Yes.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">How can I stay safe online?</span><br />
The same way you do anywhere else: Don't post personal information (name, address, phone, email, pictures, etc), unless you are comfortable exposing that information to the whole internet. If you want to go a step further, you can post with a proxy or a VPN.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Why was X user banned?</span><br />
We do not announce reasons for warnings or bans, but you can try asking the user yourself. Otherwise, use the ban megathread in Offtopic.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">What is low effort?</span><br />
It is content that is unrelated to a thread, posted for memetic value, or spam-like in nature. Examples: an emote reply, quoting someone and adding nothing else, one-word replies, and many other variations. The content might as well not have been posted.]]></content:encoded>
