Femcel

Meaning

What does Femcel mean?

A Femcel is a version of an incel referring to women that are incapable – or perceive themselves incapable – of getting sexual attention.

The Femcels consider themselves unfortunate in society because their looks does not accommodate societal beauty standards, and therefore, is not getting them laid.

However, it is under discussion whether these Femcels cannot get laid, or if they simply does not want to have sex with the mates that are offered, for example, less attractive sexual partners.

The “decile scale” is often used together with the concept of Femcels, which is the scale rating a person’s attractiveness from 1 (very unattractive) to 10 (extremely attractive).

A Femcel is considered to be a 3, or by some, any sub-5.
