A 13-year-old boy is labelled an "incel", implying that a 13-year-old boy should be having sex which is repulsive in and of itself. 

The plot is about the character Jamie being bullied and called an incel online. Eventually, he snaps in revenge on his bully. The story is about the dangers of social media not ideology. Nothing to do with hatred of women or misogyny.

Most murder victims are males killed by another male. Homicide in England and Wales - Office for National Statistics 

If young men were stabbing or even harming women as a result of the internet you can guarantee women's groups would have been broadcasting the statistics everywhere. They haven't.

A white male growing up in the UK makes it even more unlikely. Surrounded by female teachers he would have been disproportionally punished for any verbal or physical abuse in the direction of girls. More realistic would have been a newly arrived immigrant from Afghanistan or Somalia with a totally backward attitude towards women and girls. That was never going to happen as diversity and inclusion only work one way.

It completely misrepresents the manosphere as only comprising "toxic revenge-driven incel sites". He would likely have come across sites helping him improve his social and dating skills. Not to focus on one girl at a time and how to deal with rejection. Failing that, how can men live a life in the absence of female relationships? Further reading: ANTI MANOSPHERE TACTICS

It misrepresents what the manosphere actually says. Example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip1jKyq7VLo&t=1057s

I have personally never heard of the "emoji codes", despite being part of "the manosphere" since early 2017. Encountered all different types of men from all walks of life.

It gives the impression that jilted 13-year-old boys are an "Andrew Tate video away" from committing murder. In reality, they will sulk in their bedrooms playing video games. Many who follow Andrew Tate are not into his views on women but on work, success and money

Murders where you can actually prove in court that the perpetrator was directly influenced by "toxic incel websites" are extremely rare. Elliot Roger (2014), Nikolas Cruz (2018), Alek Minassian (2018). The fact that Elliot Rogers's name always comes up when discussing violent revengeful incels more than a decade later shows exactly how rare it is.

The killer was interviewed by females. Highlighting female power over males. Women have no frame of reference for the male experience.

IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE SHOWN IN SCHOOLS

Imagine being a 13-year-old and watching it in school amongst your peers and being made to wonder. Am I the only one not having sex?’  Talk about added pressure…

BURNING DOWN THE STRAWMAN

I challenge you to find one manosphere critic who doesn't do the following.

Highlighting the few % extreme ends of the spectrum. Angry basement-dwelling incels on 4chan or highly questionable men like Andrew Tate. Pretending that he represents the "manosphere" when in reality he's one of many voices with drastically different opinions. I have personally never liked or shared any content from that man since he's been around. Ignoring the lifeline that it has given millions of men. Helping average men improve their social and dating skills. Men are trying to improve their relationships/marriage. Men’s rights activists are campaigning against unfair divorce and child access laws. Helping divorced men to recover. Helping sexually unsuccessful men cope with single life (i.e the very incels they despise but won’t help) Ignoring the female equivalents of men's bad behaviour. Twitter hashtags such as #MaleTears, #MaleFragility, #MenAreTrash, and #KillAllMen.
Highlighting content creators who go viral for their bad takes, the guy screaming on a livestream, the grifter selling nonsense, the angry kid with no social skills, and they present him as representative of the entire ecosystem. While ignoring the ones who don’t, such as Caleb Jones, Phil Mitchell: Specialist Working With Abused Males, or Troy Francis The calm voices, the older men, the thoughtful conversations about dating skills, divorce law, family court incentives, fatherlessness, male loneliness, and suicide never make the conversation because those complicate the story. Complexity is bad for the narrative they’re trying to sell.

Ignoring people like Rollo Tomassi who has been in the space since 2004.

Straw manning valid manosphere concepts as “incel language” as an attempt to discredit them in one swoop instead of dealing with them individually, rationally and logically. Examples include Alpha male, Red Pill, Blue Pill and 80/20.  Portray the manosphere as a bizarre cult-like group. Women who opt out of dating are labelled "strong and independent" by comparison. The phrase “going their way” debunks this on its own. Analysis of a Guardian article https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxXcBejDN2g&t=0s It's easier than engaging with actual data or admitting institutional neglect of male issues.

Instead of asking why young men feel alienated or why family courts create such resentment, the conversation becomes “good people versus bad people.” Once that frame is set, anyone talking about the underlying issues gets lumped in with the most inflammatory, controversial personalities.

Using words like INCEL, MISOGYNY, PATRIARCHY,  RAPE CULTURE, TOXIC MASCULINITY, SEXISM, and HARASSMENT without ever clearly defining what they mean. Overusing these words to the point where they become meaningless. 
Claiming the 80/20 rule is based on a “single decade-old OK Cupid study”, when in reality it’s based on masses of data and even the confessions of women themselves. 80/20 isn’t accurate anyway. RATIONAL MALE EXPLAINS 80/20 RULE
Tinder Experiment Proves How Brutal it Is for Average Guys
Half-truths such as “they say only 1 man reproduced for every 17 women”, when in reality it happened for a short time, 8000 years ago, following the invention of agriculture.

BITTER MIDDLE AGED WOMAN

 

A story of how a female friend of mine was ruined by online dating.
Cindy is a newly divorced, 40-year-old mother of 2 and wants to make the most of her newfound freedom. She has lots of girls' nights out which usually includes lots of alcohol. Cindy engages in multiple one-night stands and short-term relationships often with much younger men that she meets in the local pubs. 

Within a couple of years, one of her close friends moves away and another gets into a serious relationship. Cindy is a bit tired of the party life combined with the chores of being a single mother and juggling a part-time job. At this point, she makes the decision to find a serious relationship of her own.

Cindy turns to online dating and makes the exact same mistakes most women make. Her profile is a lengthy list of "demands". He must be tall, good-looking, own a house/car, be physically fit etc. At the same time, stating nothing as to what such a man would get from a relationship in return. Her ex-husband who she brought 2 children into the world didn't meet any of these standards.

Cindy fails to understand that only around 1 or 2% of the male population fit this criteria. The men who do will have their pick of young, attractive childless women. They are not going to be settling down with middle-aged divorced mothers of 2. She goes on first date after first date ruthlessly rejecting most men for not meeting her standards. She demands multiple dinner dates before sex, forgetting that just a few years earlier she was more than happy to go home with random men she just met.

Sometimes she gets a man she likes but predictable as clockwork It goes wrong. He doesn't stick around, cheats, or both. All of this is broadcast on social media where an army of equally deluded women and male orbiters reinforce her ridiculous dating choices.

Nobody dares to tell her the truth, lose a few pounds, be more realistic about the type of man you can have and drop the “girl boss” personality. Cindy does the exact opposite and doubles down on her choices. She rejects hundreds of men who would have made good partners and stepdads in a futile attempt to land Mr Top few %.

In the next decade, she spends a total of around 4 months in a relationship. Getting more desperate and frustrated as time goes by. She goes through strong and independent phrases telling everyone how she doesn't need a man. Yet every time I look at her dating profile it reads “online today”. Cindy broadcasts her mental health issues and even the medication she is taking. Driving any potential male suitors away even further.

Cindy is now in her mid-50s and hasn't been in a relationship for at least 5 years to my knowledge. There is no doubt in my mind that online dating has ruined the second half of her life. In the pre-internet era, she'd be years into a second marriage by now.

PROSTITUTION

 

Everyone, right and left alike, know deep down that having something like sex, that A) everyone loves, B) is a highly personal matter and C) most everyone gives away for free because they love it, suddenly becoming a governmental crime if you pay for it, is crazy. Especially considering that paying cash-for-sex suddenly becomes legal again if you point a camera at it and call it “porn." CALEB JONES

When discussing prostitution with men the conversation always goes 1 of 2 ways.
1) Only "losers" pay for sex.
2) The more cynical would argue that the vast majority of men pay for it in the long term via, time, effort, resources.

Consider 3 women as an example.

1) The attractive 20 something who goes out on a Saturday night with the minimum of money knowing full well that there will be a queue of men willing to pay for her drinks and entry to the club.
2) The average looking single mother in her 30s. Demanding meals and drinks on her online dating profile. Knowing plenty of men will comply.
3) The long term married women who blackmails her husband with the withdrawal of sex if he doesn't comply with her demands.

In each case women have a powerful position using sex or the implied promise of sex as a bargaining chip. 

Fully Legal and regulated prostitution takes this power away from women.

The "average Joe" isn't going to be wasting time paying for drinks and meals when he can just go to the nearest red light district and handover his money then bang.  Likewise a married man isn't going to be blackmailed for sex when he can get it whenever he wants, often with younger hotter women.

I have heard many accounts from men that women in countries where prostitution is legal are far less bitchy and demanding. They are far more likely to put out after a couple of dates knowing what the man can do if she doesn't. All men benefit from legal prostitution even if they never set foot in a red light district themselves. It would also significantly reduce the risk posed by angry frustrated Incels. 

Women will of course will never campaign for legal prostitution because they down want low status men having options.
