The Equal and Opposite Reaction

Incels are constantly slandered and shamed for merely being the byproduct of a dying, degenerate society in its last stages of decline before collapse. It's generally observed that most great empires have only managed to last a total of roughly 250 years before either being destroyed or destroying themselves. I live in the United States, founded exactly 243 years ago and this seems about right, judging by our current state of affairs.

As we know, newtons 3rd law of motion implies that every active force is met with an equal but opposing force of resistance, but i believe this law applies to societal aspects as well, guised as the 'streisand effect'. Look at the phenomenon of rock music in the 60's and how widely scrutinized it was. The result was the genre EXPLODING in popularity literally within the decade, only increasing over the years until completely accepted and loved as a mainstrean genre of music.

Look at how poorly the media covered Donald Trump in the election of 2016, literally making things up about him by the week. The result was a MASSIVE amount of free coverage and exposure to his policies and campaign promises. This of course led to an inevitable victory over a woman literally estimated by "experts" to have had a 99% chance of winning, all because the media couldn't hold their arrogant tongues and thought of someone like him as a non-threat.

They see incels the same way. They create charicatures of us in their heads, reflective of only the most extreme of our ranks and they use this to lock us all in a box and slap an easily identifiable label on top of it. They brush off our issues until one of us loses it and picks up a firearm, then instead of figuring out how a young man could reach that point, they just use the incident to perpetuate the suffering of millions of men via shaming tactics and flippant dismissal of their needs.

I believe there will be a MASSIVE Societal ripple resulting from the ceaselessly negative shaming of men who have their needs brushed away like dust. Marriage is already declining. Birthrates have been below replacement level for several years now, Lonliness and sexlessness among young men has skyrocketed and women are having issues finding long-term commitment because chad doesnt want or need it, the same way modern women don't want or need sub-normie tier men. It's almost poetic justice. I dont think these first world issues that we have now are the true result, only the flip side of the current coin. I dont think we've seen the true ramifications of kicking this many downtrodden men while theyre on the ground already.

Imagine our situation as analogous to constantly pulling a rubber band as hard as you can in one direction. The only two things that can happen are:

1. The whole thing snaps in half and becomes unusable.

2. It will exert an equal force and go flying FAR in the opposite direction.

It may take decades but there will definetely be something, an event or cascade of events that will shock the system and wake people out of this self-indulgent, narcissistic, superficial haze. Just my thoughts on the matter.

Four Reasons To Stop Saying “Gender Dysphoria”

The vague and sexist concept creates the very symptoms it claims to describe

The gender identity debate is inherently a debate of language and concepts. Concepts like “transgender” and “transsexual” are hotly debated among radical feminists.

Many advocate against the use of these concepts as upholding the false premise behind them — that a person can change their sex.

In the search for accurate terms to question the practices and ideas of transgenderism, gender critical and radical feminists may fall back on another term: “gender dysphoria.”

Recently, I saw one woman announce on social media: “I just had a wonderful idea. From now on, I try to use the abbreviation PGD - people with gender dysphoria - instead of ‘trans people.’”

As a trained and practicing clinical psychologist, but above all a radical feminist, I reject the concept of gender dysphoria.

Rather than relying on it, I suggest we start debating the underlying assumptions of the clinical term “gender dysphoria” and stop using it in favor of clearer language describing and criticizing the practices and ideology of transgenderism. Here is why.

1. The concept of “Gender Dysphoria” is sexist
The 5th Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) diagnosis of “gender dysphoria” uses “gender” when it means “sex” or “sex role.” It is unclear whether the authors see a difference between these two.

By using “gender” at times for “sex” and at other times for “sex roles,” they ignore the feminist definition of sex roles as patriarchal tools of control over women. By using “gender,” when they mean “sex,” they reveal that they do not believe in the material reality of sexed bodies, but are members of the cult of “gender identity.”

The DSM-5 defines “gender dysphoria” in adolescents and adults as “incongruence between one’s experienced/expressed gender and their assigned gender lasting at least 6 months.” This state should be manifested by at least two of the following (my own translation is added in brackets):
