So, you ask, or maybe you don’t, what are the incels on Reddit getting mad about today? Well, at least seventy of them — to judge by their upvotes — are getting pig-biting mad at a cartoon by a woman who enjoys having her hair pulled during sex.
Specifically, this cartoon:
Posting the cartoon in the Braincels subreddit under the thoughtful title “All girls grow up into degenerate whores who crave to be dominated by Chad,” the incel Redditor who calls himself ASS_F declared:
All this because of … hair pulling? Hair pulling.
Jesus, dude, hair pulling is one of the most garden-variety fetishes out there, so common it barely even rates as a fetish. In terms of “degeneracy” it’s probably up there with “earlobe nibbling” or “nipple pinching.”
But, apparently trying to prove to the world that they can get mad about literally anything, some of the commenters in the thread were less angry about a cartoon character who enjoys getting her hair pulled than they were about the hypothetical cartoon character they imagined was doing the pulling — assuming that the (possibly) Asian woman in the cartoon was dating a Chadly white dude rather than an Asian guy of similar attractiveness.
Yes, this self-described “Ricecel” is an Asian guy calling Asian women “noodlewhores.”
AMAF, by the way, means “Asian Male/Asian Female.”
As fucked as all that is, it’s not quite as fucked at the comment by this guy, who decided to use this thread as an opportunity to expound upon his vision of the ideal heterosexual relationship.
Huh. I thought the Reddit admins had banned all the hate subreddits. I guess none of this counts as hate?

Isn’t the hair pulling thing a BIG part of mainstream porn, along with being slapped about a bit? I mean, this is presumably where they have got their ideas about it.
(I wasn’t aware of it being a really common practice – maybe lesbians do it, but I have not known any. Maybe our hair tends to be too short!)
As far as I can see it mostly caters to a male fantasy the way he is going on about it, as nearly all porn does. That these men take that fantasy into a degrading realm is hardly surprising.
As if incels didn’t already think all women should be treated like livestock.
