Fakecel

[[File:this.png|thumb|right|Satirical [[meme]] about fakecels]]
A '''fakecel''' is someone who pretends to be, sees themselves as, or just likes hanging out with or defending [[Incel|incels]], despite having had [[Copulation|sexual relationships]] in the past. Many [[Incel community|incel communities]] have fakecels amongst their userbase, which has been a prominent source of drama on such forums. Other fakecels seem to have more malevolent motives for pretending to be incels, such as infiltrating incel spaces to [[Bullying|bully]] users there or to gain [[Narcissism|narcissistic]] supply via engaging in schadenfreude over the laments of incels. 

The term is also commonly used as a quasi-insult in incel spaces, as users who are exposed as sufficiently [[Beauty|physically attractive]] or who disclose (inadvertently or not) their ability to receive some level of attraction from [[Femoid|women]] are often accused of being fakecels, even if they are sexually inactive. 

==Potential motives for pretending to be incel==
It is likely that fakecels have often experienced spells of inceldom themselves or have general psychological/demographic traits that overlap with incel forum users. 

However, as it seems psychologically difficult for most [[men]] to admit to being low in socio-sexual status some further explanation of the behavior of fakecels is required.
It is possible that many fakecels know the pain of [[inceldom]], either because they experienced long stretches of inceldom in between [[relationships]], or they became [[Copulation|sexually active]] at an old age. Others simply agree with what they perceive as the general worldview and observations of incels, whether it be the [[blackpill]] or other schools of thought popularly associated with incels.

Chadcel or fakecel can also refer to someone who is good looking, but is incel due to [[Mentalcel|mentalceldom]] or other reasons. [[Standardcel|Standardcels]] and [[Volcels]] are sometimes accused of being, or are generally conflated with, fakecels.

==Tests for determination of Fakecel ==
===Characteristics of truecels===
# Extreme ugliness (per blackpill forums). "[[Truecel]]" is often just used as an appellation for very ugly men in such spaces, even rarely in some instances where these ugly men have indeed been sexually active in the past.
# Lack of sexual relationships past the age of consent, regardless of effort on that person's behalf. Many incels try to gatekeep inceldom and claim only those that have put in effort to [[approach]] women are incel, so this excludes [[Love shy|love shy]] incels or [[mentalcels]] in their view. Alternatively, other incels argue these things are hard to alter or improve and such individuals are still incel against their will. 
# Females so far have not been receptive to that person's sexual and/or romantic advances. This is somewhat subjective, but some argue that [[IOI|genuine sexual interest]] can be ascertained by things such as proxemics.<ref name=":0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azBEWpbtlxM</ref>
#Following the previous point, females have so far not been likely to genuinely smile or "make silly faces" at the person in question, or often displayed any warmth to them whatsover.<ref name=":0"/>
#Very low social and sexual capital. Little [[Friendship|friends]], lack of financial resources, being routinely mistreated in social interactions, and having little capacity to initiate relationships.
#Are treated badly even by [[Whore|prostitutes]], or are unable to employ the services of prostitutes due to [[Rejection (dating)|rejection]] by them. Even [[whore|whores]] often have standards, and such people would be considered extreme truecels.

===Mentalcels vs uglycels===
As mentioned above, [[mentalcels]] are often claimed to be fakecels. We can distinguish between mentalcels and uglycels via the following methods:
====Lookscels====
*[[Beauty|One's looks level]] is defined by various traits, where an unbiased online [[PSL rating|ranking system]] would be able to consistently rank them as unattractive. Some use metrics such as success with [[online dating]] to measure this, while others use supposedly 'objective' third-party ratings such as the method developed by [[Wheat Waffles]] to attempt to quantify this.
'''Ugly physical traits''':
* Ugly/unattractive face: [[Uglycel|uglycels]] (which includes eyes, hair, [[acnecel|acne]], [[baldcel|balding]], [[fatcel|obesity]], recessed chin and [[Jaw is law|jaw]], and (according to some), [[cutecel|lack of facial sexual dimorphism in men]]
* Poor frame: [[Framecel|framecels]] (thin bones, lack of [[Muscle theory|muscle]], [[Thincel|thinness]])
* Manlets: [[Heightcel|Overly short men]]
====Mentalcels====
Mentalcels are defined by these two classes, where one can struggle with [[Offline dating|IRL dating]] due to a contained social circle or issues with anxiety, socializing etc., but they can perhaps have greater success with online [[dating]]:
=====Fast life history cels=====
* Psychopathcels, ADHDcels, Narcissistcels who exhibit "Social Instability" (Shorter [[Life history|Life History]])
* Potential chadcels with [[looksmaxxing]]
* more likely to have "[[game]]" and are effective at utilizing [[PUA]] strategies
* often can target the [[cock carousel]] and other [[milkmired]] women with relative ease
=====Slow life history cels=====
* Sociopathcels, Schizophrenicels, Bipolcels, BPDcels as "Social Inflexibility" (Longer Life History)
* More often truecels with [[Feminization|feminized]] facial and [[frame]] characteristics
* likely to have higher [[IQ]] and creativity
* often the "manic pixie boy" stereotype, thus attracting rebellious females as a temporary [[Beta Orbiter|beta-orbiter]]

==Fakecels on r9k==
There is a widely propagated rumor that discord servers were made by fakecels to coordinate an effort to get [[robot|robots]] on [[r9k]] to undergo [[Trannymaxxing|gender transition surgery]]. They were said to do this by spamming pics of trans porn and telling incels that they could only [[ascend]] by transitioning. Because of this rumor, any posting suggesting incels fit in with the [[Homosexuality|LGBTQ]] community is met with extreme suspicion as an [[anti-incel]] discord psyop.
