that's your belief, but not universal.

Not all sex is about pleasure. Many schools of thought, especially religious, teach sex for pleasure is wrong. Either way, sex is a lesser-order need at best. I don't see how that's not the case. Needs are hierarchal in terms of vitality for life.

This is why incels are mocked. You cannot argue, you use odd analogies and comparisons and you cannot connect nor reason with people. You don't know how to persuade. Imagine Gandhi saying "India should be independent so we can kill all British mothers and children". Yep, that would have encouraged the British to end the Raj...

if some want kids, fine. if others don't, fine. There are few things that prescriptively work for all.

Bar food and water, few things are true absolute human needs. One hears all of these stories of monks or priests that live in the desert or woods for decades with little to no ill-effects. So whilst people have a need for companionship, it's not as elementary as food or water. Maslow spoke of a hierarchy of needs, and he was right. Sex isn't high on the hierarchy, imho.

I don't believe anybody truly needs sex. Some may have more of a physiological attachment to it, but that's not universal. There are some who would enjoy being hermits in forest. For others, that's Hell on Earth. But all of these people need food and water. Sex is a lesser order human need at best. It's more of an innate desire than a true need. As for innovation and inventions, lots of noted scientists have been celibate. People create things for a variety of reasons, not just to get pussy.

Pity can be extended to anybody, even those who self-cause their problems. I'd argue then what do incels want? they want a world that's unrealistic and infeasible. If they don't appreciate help, then that's their own failing, since hthey're not seen their situation objectively.

Incels are lost. They didn't get there are trends we're all affected by, that transcend us as individuals. The hotties they despise might suffer from sexism. The chads they envy might have their own struggles. We're all born into systems, laid down by people who lived long ago. This includes for the most part dating norms. Some of these are arguably biological, such as women's height preferences. Incels need mental help, since they have blind spots in which they don't "get" points of life. They didn't get that humans aren't owed anything, and most things we have to work and fight for. Or they can design a world where everybody is equally privileged. Good luck to them on that. I wonder if incels who come from rich families, who love them, support them, and ensure they get good education and healthcare realise THAT is a privilege. A child soldier in Africa, or a sweatshop worker in Bangladesh, would love that privilege too. But they won't see it that way. They'd retort that "sex is important cos SOCIETY SAYS SO!" yes, this is true in part. But part of modern sex positivity is also that one doesn't have to be sexual if one doesn't want to be. Incels are blinded and intransigent. Well, growing up without being forced to kill people is something most nay all would want. As is being a six-year-old kid who is forced to make clothes, shoes, or household goods. Few if any would choose to be in such a position. But no....incels have it so worse, when sex isn't even a true need, and being made to be a killer when very young, or working 20-hour days as a tiny kid won't fuck a person up for life psychologically. It's no surprise imho that incels show a higher than average prevalence of neurodiversity. As youngsters, they probably "didn't get" lots of things, so it led to the formation of a warped mindset that has emerged as contemporary inceldom. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2023.1235929/full Incels warrant sympathy - hence they should be given mental help and support. If this means aid in schools or universities, so be it.

As a marketing pro myself, I wonder if people still think this way. Marketing is just how products get to market. it's the entire process of how products are conceptualised, and then tested to gauge demand, and then itemised for release into the marketplace. So this covers product development, market research, what we call the seven Ps (place, product, physical evidence, price, promotion, people, process), digital marketing (social media, SEO, e-mail lists, etc.), and tailoring products to fit different markets globally. This can be misused and some advertising can be misleading or harmful, but there isn't a practice that cannot be misused, is there?

All citizens have rights. This includes criminals. Unless one is Hitler, I don't see why that's offensive. Perhaps people who think criminals don't warrant defence are like that. that's on them. The point of a court is to determine innocence or guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. So what are laywers going to do? not listen to evidence, or the ruling of a judge and/or jury? It's not the job of a lawyer to make a client with overwhelming evidence be innocent. It's to mititage any punishment. Even still, that's the defendant's right, per the legal systems of many countries. People have rights. If that's offensive to you, then maybe study how law in the USA and similar systems operates. So being a lawyer is morally neutral, since there is nothing inherently bad in being such. Lawyers provide services ranging from asylum cases, stamping official state forms/documents, defending/prosecuting criminals, being legal advisors to firms, etc. Law is morally neutral. Some laws are good and some are bad, and others are irrational. But since criminals don't warrant criminal defences, and there are firm guidelines that lawyers defending those suspecting with crimes against misleading courts, then yes, all lawyers are scum. Including the lawyer who stamped my passport renewal form, since leaving a country and entering another with the permission of a foreign government is evil and morally base.

It might for many, but not all. hence why I called it a lower-order need at best. Few things exist that are absolute needs - food and water are some of them. Stress affects people differently, and there are unique/subjective triggers for stress. A monk hermit could be willing to be alone and not suffer. But s/he still needs food and water.
-
I don't agree. it's not a need in the truest sense. people's desire for sex differs. again, some project their sexual desire onto others. friendship is a desire but not a need.
-
this redpill concept is so cringe. The reality is most people don't know nor meet those with uber-wealth. Most people are of average means. Most don't know supreme wealth. For this reason alone, amongst many others, they won't date high earners.
-
By pity, I mean having empathy for them, as they are lost and need help. It doesn't mean concurring with their ideology, which is nuts as it stands.

Nobody dies without sex. At best it's a lesser-order "need". there are people who are celibate for life, or only need sex once a month or week. those who say it's a need are projecting.
-
- legality - is it legal in your country? - stigma - even though Western society is more sex-positive than it was 30 years ago, the stigma of porn is still high. It could mean not getting a job subsequently - industry risks - these range from STIs, to stalkers, and abusive porn-producing companies. - family - not all family might be open-minded.

Yes, and all professions have bad actors and components. And? I had already stated as such.
-
What men and women are "meant" to do is just a social construct. If that's too PC for some, i don't give a shit. State then, without citing the Bible or Koran some such, where it's stated men and women "should' do something.

Hamas wants Israel to die. It wants all jews in what is now Israel to die.

The best of all time for me is the late, great Pele. I can't see any other player winning three World Cups soon. As for Messi vs. Ronaldo, I don't like to compare them. It's petty imho. I have a preference for Ronaldo, mainly since as an English football fan I saw and remembered him as a youth at Man United. I feel in some form, his achievements are more impressive, as he has gone to more countries and won. Messi has better technical ability than Ronaldo, though Ronaldo is better in the air and a superior athlete. Though now, both have lost a lot of explosiveness, which is natural as they have aged. Ronaldo was an expert dribbler in his youth, but has become more of a central number 9 these days. Both are top talents, so whilst I hold a bias towards Ronaldo, I value both of them as elite footballers and two of the best of all time. I would say that both have usurped the late greats Maradona and Eusebio as the best of their countries. My top five of all time are - Pele, Ronaldo, Messi, Maradona, Ronaldinho.

Perfectionism is a pipedream. However, there is little wrong with striving for things.

Some people just have more authoritarian mindsets. It's just how their cognition works.

Nuclear power isn't proven to be safe. Incidents like Fukushima and Chornobyl show this. However, both incidents were in part due to bad management. Whilst both were bad, they are the exceptions and not the norm. there have been bad oil spills, but then people are anti-oil due to climate change issues primarily, and not because wildlife or coastlines get wrecked from said spills. I don't see why we can't litter the major deserts with solar panels, which in turn would benefit poorer African or Asian countries with additional revenues. -
I broadly concur with the OP. I dislike attractive women. I just think they're dark. Society spoils them, and they play into it. Whenever I see an above-average woman, i just hate her on sight. I just know she'd be all in your face, and rough and hostile. like this - i just feel negativity. pretty women are spoilt by life and it affects their characters. i dont' see many of them as competent or ethical people.
