Mike Halpin returns to Talk Beliefs to go into even more depth about so-called 'incels' - the involuntary celibates.
What is the history of the incel phenomenon? When did it start? Was Jack the Ripper an incel? And are there female incels?
This and much more.
MICHAEL HALPIN is an Assistant Professor in Sociology and social anthropology at Dalhousie University, Canada, and is currently studying the experiences of socially isolated men. He has published papers on Involuntarily Celibates– or Incels – a growing and occasionally deadly phenomenon that may be on the rise.
