I'm not really onboard with everything you say, but:

> Male virginity is toxic (incel)

This is the one that gets to me the most.

Being involutary celibate, or even just having a dry run for a long time, is kind of like hell for a man. I'm not sure if women are capable of just appreciating how painful it is (judging by comments I read on line, they think it's a joke). Even men who have regular sex don't understand it, or quickly forget what it was like.

> Male feminity is a weakness (soy boy), and a Male's duty is to protect females.

These are not bad things. Male's duty is to protect. Not females as a class: the females and children in your family (wife, sister, mother).

In fact, this is the thing that gives meaning to your life. If you're not capable of protecting your family, what are you good for? I'm not saying this as an attack. I'm saying that this is the internal voice in every man's head.

First of all, there's plenty of whores if you think sex is a human right. Prostitution is the oldest profession. If we normalize sex work, people can meet demand without getting shamed. Who's trying to do that? Mostly feminists if you ask me.
They say one thing and do the other. For example: In many feminist countries being a prostitute is legal but soliciting a prostitute isn't. Its meant to protect prostitutes which I 100% understand, but it is a double standard that stigmatizes the use of prostitution while also putting those who utilize it in real danger. I am not arguing for legalized prostitution, and I do not think anybody has the right to sex, however I think that it is wrong to shame and humiliate somebody for a lack of sexual success.
