Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

I'll add that people aren't being hugged, & touched enough. Also, infrastructure sucks to encourage socializing

Its an epidemic of that. We are social creatures. That's our main motto

When we work together, live in groups, etc we all feel better. Reminds us of our tribe days

A big part of human connection is being physical with each other in a chill way. So try to hug your bros more, & get things done as a unit with women!

Both sides are supposed to be allies to each other

the problem is that incels focusing in that problem think that they are owed sex and attention from attractive women. when the real solution of to develop and use third spaces, and develop social connections of any kind.

This was a pivotal video about "nice guys" I watched growing up that imo everyone should watch.

Favorite line:

This is not a transaction where you walk up to the cashier and pull out your nice bucks and buy sex and romance.

Unfortunately, many men think hugging or touching each other is effeminate and gay.
