Part of the problem is society showing that sex is the be all and end all of relationships. Look at media that belittles celibacy and ridicules chastity.
If we feed the idea that sex is what’s needed and missing it is abnormal why so surprised when those who are unable to achieve that “goal” become disenchanted. Not to excuse expressing that disenchantment in this manner but society has created the situation and now has to deal with it.
Maybe we need to teach our kids that remaining celibate is a good thing. And the media shouldn’t mock those who are celibate but celebrate with those that choose that way and support those finding it difficult.
Celebrate celibacy!

Re: Multiple fatalities in Plymouth
Can you point out any examples where the media has mocked those who are celibate, or where media "belittles celibacy and ridicules chastity", please?
The only things that spring to mind is where the media reported on those supposedly celibate priests who molested children, and that’s highlighting criminal acts and abuses of power, not mockery.

Re: Multiple fatalities in Plymouth
Being single is not the same as being celibate…

"I never believed the whole ‘I’m happy single’ spiel,” she continues. “I was like, ‘This is totally spiel.’ It took me a long time, but I’m very happy [being single]. I call it being self-partnered.”
She is, however, dating. “Not one specific person,” she’s keen to clarify, “but I’m going on dates.”

And it was Piers Morgan, so…

Re: Multiple fatalities in Plymouth
Because of the "incels" term used, this attack could be changed to a terrorist attack.
