JFL A novelist featured incels in his latest crime fiction: Fair Warning by Michael Connelly

The plot features a disgraced university professor (accused of raping a foid student) who jumps to the private sector and starts his own DNA testing company, GT23. Two incel lab technicians purchase data from GT23 and run a forum (Dirty4, where membership costs $500/yr) on the dark web, where they profile and list femoids with a genetic proclivity for risky sexual behaviour. Dirty4 is supposedly geared towards incels, PUAs, assorted creeps who can then use this data to target these particular femoids for hookups. If you think that this doesn't make any sense, that's because it doesn't. I was going to rant about how stupid the premise of Dirty4 is, but this reviewer on Amazon already says most of what I wanted to say:

I’m not sure Connelly even wrote this: it’s so bad I think it was done by a ghostwriter. Who would pay 500 a year for the names of ‘loose’ women? When you can sign up to tinder and have them contact you? These men still had to approach and seduce the women: it was still the woman’s choice whether or not to bed them. It makes no sense: Having a list of names won’t do you much good if you’re repellent to women or unlikable: however ‘loose’ they still won’t sleep with you. And if you’re in any way attractive you don’t need the list. So it made no sense.

I didn't have high expectations for the novel's portrayal of incels but it was, quite frankly, comical. The incels in the story are essentially evil geeks with biology degrees who hate femoids and happen to work in forensic testing labs. That's about it. They're about as one-dimensional as any fictional character can get -- though, to be fair, that description would apply to most of the characters in this novel.
