I guess there is a constituency that has been thrilled by a Brett's hysterics during his confirmation hearings.
https://www.thedailybeast.com/kavanaugh-has-become-a-hero-to-the-incel-community?ref=home
Brett Kavanaughs fate as a Justice on the Supreme Court hangs in the balance following a highly contentious day of hearings Thursday with him and the woman who accused him of sexual assault.
But even as he waits for a final verdict from members of the U.S. Senate, Kavanaugh has seen his stature rise elsewhere. The federal judge has become a hero to the sexually frustrated, misogynist incel community, after he claimed that he remained a virgin for years after graduating from high school.
Incels is a shortening of the phrase involuntarily celibate. It is a group of sexually frustrated men who gather in internet forums to complain about their lack of social status and the women they blame for it. And in various internet forums over the past few days, theyve expressed interest in Kavanaugh after he claimed, in a Fox News interview Monday, that he never had sex in high school or for years after. Kavanaugh did so to dispute accusations from Dr. Christine Blasey Ford that he had sexually assaulted her during the summer of 1982.
I did not have sexual intercourse or anything close to sexual intercourse in high school or for many years thereafter, Kavanaugh said.
