Questions & Answers

Q: Are femme-cels equivalent to incels?

Initially, the speaker saw similarities between the two but now believes that women have more options and can find some form of sex or relationship, even if it's not ideal. However, femmes do face challenges in finding partners they are genuinely attracted to.

Q: Why is sex different for men and women?

Men often view sex as something generally enjoyable, regardless of the partner. Women, on the other hand, have a higher level of disgust sensitivity and find it emotionally and psychologically difficult to have sex with someone they don't desire.

Q: How do sex workers handle disgust sensitivity?

It is suggested that sex workers who have more control over their clientele may have a higher level of disgust sensitivity since they can choose who they want to engage with. Those with less control may downregulate their disgust mechanisms to cope with their profession.

Q: How does the control over one's environment affect disgust sensitivity?

People who have more control over their environment, such as pig farmers who grow accustomed to the smell, can downregulate their disgust sensitivity. Those who can't leave an undesirable situation, like a first-time visitor to a pig farm, may have a higher level of disgust sensitivity.
