I, for one, am not very likely to develop a romantic interest in one.

Fair enough. I think once a young man signs up to be part of that "clique" then trying to get romantic with one of them might also be dangerous.

One pattern is the outright racist attitudes that many incel users have on the online platforms which suggest they are unlikely to consider dating anyone who is "foreign",

I knew a few guys in my late 20s who were in the early 30s and involuntarily found themselves celibate, dateless and single (and no they weren't incels because that culture didn't exist in the 1990s). One thing these guys all had in common were they were reasonably good looking and had jobs but were very picky about the the type of girl/woman they were looking for.
They had to be young, pretty and good looking. I now know that one them eventually married a pretty younger filipino woman and the others are still unmarried in 2022.

There's something in the red pill world called 'geomaxing', the idea like to that, similar to 'looks maxing', is that short but financially well-off guys go to countries where the height of the average person is significantly shorter on average than North America to find a partner. I think it was Alexander Grace who gave people a list of countries where the average guy was either close to or even under 5 ft and it was funny to see Bolivia toward the extreme low-end of that distribution, makes me wonder if there's something in the coca.

It's not the coca, it's the malnutrition. Bolivia is poor, plain and simple. Most people can't afford nutritious food, especially quality meats and fresh produce. They make do with beans and rice (good), or just cheap junk food (bad). So when you can't get good food, you can't get good nutrition. And when you can't get good nutrition, your body can't grow tall.

Yeah, I figured it was something like that. I sort of wondered whether that's still an issue in the more developed areas of the country or just in the countryside.

I think height can be a factor (certainly a few on WP who have indicated this has been a handicap in the dating market).
But among the men I was referring to in my post they were all above or close to 6 foot. I think we have to factor that incel shooters that have committed mass murder are mostly good looking young men. That's my point. Maybe they had a "type" and that's what was a stumbling block that would only settle with dating a good looking girl,

let me give you two more examples from family friends who had sons who never got married. One worked in IT and the other became a tech lawyer. I knew them quite well as teenagers and they were average height (around 5'10) reasonably good looking, private school educated from upper middle class backgrounds. This was pre-internet era and the IT fellow was obsessed with Elaine from Seinfled. No joke!, Seinfeld fans will know that there was an episode where a nerd was also obsessed with Elaine and this guy had posters of the actress Julia Louise Dreyfus all over his wall and said he wanted a girl like that. The engineer was a Buffy the vampire slayer and had every VHS video of the actress Sarah Michelle Gellar, He was also a fan of the other 90s "it" girl Jennifer Love Hewitt. Even in the 1990s finding a girl who looked like one of these actresses in their prime is pretty ambitious for an "average Joe".

So maybe a lot of these incels have unrealistic expectations and think they deserve a supermodel instead of a slightly overweight pimply girl next door (who BTW are nowadays just as difficult to date).

I had a Quillette article that I posted by Will Storr over in In-Depth Adult Life Discussion recently on that topic (title is 'A brutally insightful Quillette article about male violence'), I decided to put it there because with Ed Kemper it got fastidious in ways that I'd feel uncomfortable exposing younger posters to.

The idea there seemed to be that in one sense some of these guys, particularly noting Elliot Rodgers in the article, did find themselves gravitated to this because their humiliation primarily came from female peers, however with these guys Will Storr pointed out that the commonalities started with deep humiliation and in some cases profound abuse (in the case of Ed Kemper a guy with a 146 IQ and a horror-movie level abusive mom, I think of Kane's character in 'See No Evil'), this then bounced back against both high levels of intelligence and narcissism. While many men suffer humiliation in the social world, and as the author noted - humiliation beyond redemption where you're not just told that you can't be in 'this' status hierarchy right now until you man up or whatever, it's permanent exile from ever joining a status hierarchy. Adding both high IQ and narcissism to that combo makes it all the more vivid and crushing an experience, which then if someone has psychopathic potential that's even more bars removed which would otherwise be holding their humanity in place.

On a completely different note Ted Kaczynski was also in the article and they were discussing the humiliation experiment that he was put in during college and how that impacted where he ended up.

Oh I see. I noticed that other guys try to do this too, and marry someone from a foreign nation, as relationships with women from foreign nations might be easier and this is why? Could other guys, perhaps incels, try this route too?

Yes for Incels (uppercase), but Red Pillers warn against it.

Why? Women are still women everywhere in the world, with the same biological instincts and same lust for alpha males (except lesbian women). Now, a beta male with ASD may get a free pass for his aspie quirks, because they're attributed to cultural differences instead of his own weirdness. But his beta male-ness is still universally unattractive. "Foreign" women may go for him because cultural norms dictate them to do so, or because he's their ticket out of poverty. But the lustful feelings women normally harbor for Chad will never be there, no matter how serious the relationship gets; and in the worst case, a beta could find himself raising Chad's baby.

Also, the Red Pill tears down the idealized images Incels put up about "foreign" women. For instance, Southeast Asian women can be _____, Eastern European women are generally _______, and Latin American women are actually more ______ than North American women. (Underscores represent anti-TOS statements.) Now, a North American man may be of some interest, and having someone show interest in you as a person may feel like a breath of fresh air. But it's a friendly interest in meeting someone from a different culture, not a lustful interest in mashing genitals.

Also, sometime in 2016, there were news articles: some incel (lowercase) idiot flew from Holland to China to meet his online girlfriend. She no-showed, as expected. He waited 10 days for her in the airport. In the end, he got taken to a local hospital for exhaustion, dehydration, and malnutrition. I saw their photos: she looked attractive, he did not.

It's sad how incel men will literally put themselves in harm's way for a false promise of sex/companionship.

Oh I see. That's not good... Well I guess the best thing for guys to do would be to become alpha males then, and change their behavior around, if that is what women are attracted to? For example, I know one guy who is overweight and average looking, but he is complete alpha and still manages to score because of personality, if that's the best thing to do?

Alpha males are born, not made. The alpha/beta divide is hard-coded into men's DNA. However, it's not too difficult for beta males to emulate alpha males, as women can't always tell the difference between natural-born alphas and emulated alphas, provided that their looks are similar enough; that's why the Red Pill works. But there's a catch: you can't pull off emulated behaviors forever. Sooner or later, you'll slip up, act like a beta male, and lose the woman's respect and desire. So it's only good for short-term relationships, unfortunately. Then again, with acting like a natural-born beta male from the get-go, you won't get women's interest in the first place.

Standards of attraction differ across cultures. Even if we're talking only of body attraction, on average a person from Egypt will be attracted to a vastly different body shape than a person in China. In some cultures, skinny men are all the rage and in some it's the muscles that do the talking. If we're talking about personality, being "original", "unique", "vibrant" etc. is attractive in, say, the US, but as a rule off-putting in, say, Japan. It means you aren't enough of a grown-up man (or lack the smarts) to find your place and be of use to others.

But men who are attracted to women only because of their "foreignness" are nothing to write home about. Even worse are those who enter into relationships on that ground and then blame "cultural differences" for their failures.
