Terror of the Sexes
So, are unattached men about to become the new 'enemy within', replacing Muslims as the media's new hate figures? I only ask because, in the wake of that attack in Canada, where some guy killed ten people by running them over with a vehicle, some sections of the media certainly seem to be trying to build up this whole 'Incel' movement as a potential new terror threat. Incel stands for 'Involuntary Celibate', by the way. Yeah, I had to look it up, too. Basically, they seem to be an online community of misogynists who can't get laid and spend their time in various online groups and forums moaning about how that is all the fault of women and the attractive men they seem to prefer. It never seems to occur to them that, maybe, if they spent less time whingeing about their lack of action and fantasising about 'punishing' those women who aren't interested in them and actually tried talking to real women in real life, treating them as human beings, they might just get somewhere? Actually, this is another of those weird scenarios I used to joke about which has now become real. Sort of. Years ago I wrote something over at The Sleaze about a misogynistic pharmacist who set up a 'dating' service for shy, ugly, inadequate or just plain obnoxious men who couldn't attract women: he chloroformed and kidnapped potential 'dates' after they had been stalked by his 'clients'. It seems that I wasn't a million miles from the truth.
Anyway, to return to my original point, in view of this Incel 'terror' attack, can we single men now expect to be targeted by press and authorities alike, branded as 'terror' suspects? If the persecution of Muslims in the UK has been anything to go by, it won't matter if you have a record of supporting women's rights and the likes 'That's just a cover', the press will start screaming. Anything you do as a single man will be scrutinised and somehow re-interpreted as evidence of your misogyny. Trust me, jerking over the lingerie section of the Great Universal catalogue will quickly become a capital offence. As for Valentine's Day, it will no longer be a mildly awkward day to be endured by singletons every year - it will quickly turn into a full on purge. If you are unattached, you won't dare venture out on the streets every 14 February, for fear of being attacked by mobs of couples who attempt to beat you to death with those heart shaped balloons. Perhaps the solution might be for single guys to pair up and pretend to be gay couples - that might put the authorities and media off the scent in their pursuit of new scapegoats for whatever it is plaguing society at the time. Obviously, an Incel-inspired backlash against single men wouldn't result in a matriarchal society - it would be the same rich (married) bastards in charge, pulling the strings to use another media panic to pursue their own agendas.
