Maslow's hierarchy of needs indicates that sex is just as fundamental a need as food, water, and breathing! So why should anyone be deprived of it?

Sex is as fundamental a basic need as food, water, breathing, and sleep!

The bottom indicates our most basic of needs. Isn't it to no surprise that incels do terrible atrocities against society because of this deprivation? Sexual intimacy is part of it as well!

  • SO then incels need to stop blaming everyone else for their shortcomings, improve themeselves and get the sex they need.

  • Incels commit atrocities partly because they overvalue sex. The truth is that sleep, air, water, and food are basic human needs; sex isn't.

  • Yeah they should just go to a brothel.

  • Your version is outdated😎

  • True but it is something you have to give not just receive. It's a giving feeling not something you take..

  • Sex is not a need like food and water. I can't go without those but I can go without getting off

  • If a person you can't get sex then that's their problem. They no one to blame but themselves..

    • I felt I needed to own the downthumb, I feel there are forces outside the individuals control that would stop them from getting sex - and I believe it's wrong to blame yourself for things outside of your control. But I don't plan on going in depth.

  • Surely you can see how comparing sex to breathing is preposterous.

  • I don't get what the issue even is, it's not hard to get laid. Be clean, dress nice, go to bar, club or use tinder. Honestly having meaningful relationships is the tricky part in my opinion.

    • And no I'm not rich or hot, I'm a chunky 6 lol

    • Thank you for your input.

  • This is bullshit. You don't fucking die when you don't have sex..

    • Very true! But humanity risks extinction if humans are generally indifferent to it.

  • Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is quite an intuitive and neatly thought out psychological framework that's easy to explain to just about anybody, but it isn't anywhere close to being a hard science. It can be useful to reflect on somewhat, but it should ultimately be taken with a grain of salt, much like myriads of other ideas from psychologists during the same time period, e. g. Freud and Jung.

  • I don't know if they need it that bad they could always pay for it

  • Man, if its like this the incels are gonna win.

  • Maslow's heirarchy of needs is first of all just a theory and 2nd of all the pyramid hasn't been completed by Maslow himself but is self interpreted this just because some random dude on the internet wrote sex as a basic human right doesn't mean every horny guy deserves a pussy to be served to him lmao

  • I think the confusion here is in the definition. It’s not a need in terms of without it you can’t survive. It’s more of an emotional thing that enables wellbeing. I’d place it further up since it’s not going to cause death.

    • Plenty of people are having less sex now too don’t forget. I suspect this will be reviewed and changed eventually when more research comes out.

    • Indeed, but without sex, humanity goes extinct. That's why it's such a fundamental craving. Even if you don't personally die from it.

  • When the ego tricks the mind, one begins to see basic desires as fundamental needs...

    • This isn't my work. Go consult with the renowned Abraham Maslow, not me.
