      Materials concerning roasties (where women's labia are compared to a roast beef sandwich) and the dogpill (where women are described as engaging in bestiality rather than having sex with incels) ended up being so ludicrous, that any initial shock or revulsion was diffused and ended up having comedic effect, not at women's expense, but at the sheer absurdity of incel's imagination.
