Involuntary celibacy (colloquially incel) is chronic near-total or total absence in a person's sexuality of intimate relationships or sexual intercourse for reasons other than voluntary celibacy, asexuality, antisexualism, or sexual abstinence.

Involuntary celibacy is distinct from other forms of celibacy, in that it's nothing more than a bunch of whiny, misogynistic dudebros crying about how it's women's obligation to have sex with them. Involuntarily celibate individuals are just as sexually driven as a typical individual, but their day to day experiences, despite effort on their part, fail to produce any significant sexual partnerships, because they're all douchebags who believe in the friendzone. Incel persons therefore lack intimate physical connection for very long periods of their adult lives — not merely, for example, a 12- or 24-month gap — while also perpetually failing to secure opportunities for sexual engagement in the first place, which, frankly, is entirely their own fault for being major creeps to every woman they meet.

Most incel people are physically unattractive, and are often disrespectful to women. Any type of personality disorder an incel person might have has very little to do with the fact that they're irrationally bitter about the lack of sex that is entirely their fault, and the assumption that it might seems somewhat ableist.
