Study Shows Therapy Ineffective for Incels

No.24135573 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Study on 100 incels in therapy determined it doesn't work on them.


>Among incels reporting therapy experiences, 70.8% reported negative outcomes and 7.9% reported satisfaction. None of those forced into therapy (25.8%) reported positive outcomes. Thematic analysis revealed barriers to engagement: (1) “blackpill” ideology attributing sexual/romantic deprivation to immutable factors; (2) conspiracy theories framing therapy as designed to sedate and control; (3) view of therapy as female-biased and hostile to men; (4) practical concerns including cost, privacy, and hospitalization.

>Incels present intervention challenges due to their fatalistic worldview, institutional distrust, and extreme misogyny. Findings suggest potential benefits of male therapists and clear therapeutic goals that acknowledge but do not promise to resolve romantic concerns.


Why doesn't therapy help incels? Do you agree with the authors' conclusions of the reasons?
