If they "settled" for someone more in their league, and they were nice, intelligent men capable of supporting themselves, chances are pretty good that they could find a sexual partner. But a "10" isn't interested in the poorly groomed loser who still lives with his mom and spends his days playing violent video games. Frankly, few women are. Before they say it's all about looks, just remember Woody Allen had long term relationships with Mia Farrow and Dianne Keaton.

Come to think of it, my guess is that these "incels" don't have a lot of male friends either.
