      Not here, but some of the reddit communites are a bit less friendly. Supposedly as a joke, but if it is one, they’re pretty into the bit. Idk, that could be the case.

    New proposal for a functional definition of femcel:

    It has to include everyone on…

    https://www.reddit.com/r/MyBoyfriendIsAI/


    I’ll be real with ya’ll, 95% of people I encounter outside of this comm (which I love) use the word femcel as if it basically just means ‘socially awkward and/or romantically unsuccesful or disinterested cishet woman who has never had a serious relationship or sex, who is also potentially a misandrist’.

    Basically, just a cishet inversion of incel, over into a cishet girl/woman.

    Whereas the understanding that this community seems to have, is, as best I can tell, is that femcel means basically ‘hikkikomori/permaonline transwoman / femboy / nb + feminine expression, etc.’

    I’m really not trying to be mean, but it is somewhat difficult to manage the dissonance between how this comm seems to understand ‘femcel’, and how seemingly everyone else uses the term.

    Like, if I am wildly off base here, please correct me… I am confuse.
