“Incels” — lonely, angry, misogynist men — are going under the knife to reshape their face, and their dating prospects, Alice Hines reports thecut.io/2EBrPtK
Incels are convinced that their lives will improve significantly if they can somehow become “Chads,” who are believed to be “alpha” men thecut.io/2EBrPtK
“The difference between a Chad and an incel is literally a few millimeters of bone,” reads one meme thecut.io/2EBrPtK
To achieve their goal of becoming Chads, some incels turned to Dr. Barry Eppley, a cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon in Indiana. Dr. Eppley, however, says he has never heard of incels thecut.io/2EBrPtK
“Incels have this idea of an ideal superman, and [Dr. Barry] Eppley is the one who does that crazy stuff” thecut.io/2EBrPtK
Dr. Barry Eppley says, “Chiseled features, an angular, sculpted face. It’s been the standard for the annals of time. Now there’s a practical way to actually achieve it” thecut.io/2EBrPtK
For a further look at the world of incels and plastic surgery, read Alice Hines’s “How Many Bones Would You Break to Get Laid?” thecut.io/2EBrPtK
