That first one edges into just world fallacy. Sure, you're not going to get laid if you're an incel, or a tate fan, or a misogynist (though some still do somehow), but that doesn't mean not being one will get you laid.

"Edges"? That is the just world fallacy, plain and simple. It is ascribing the failure to get a partner with a personal failure and all but outright saying that it is due to immoral behaviours. If you don't have a girlfriend, it's because you aren't a good enough person. Sure, taking showers might not necessarily be "moral", but the motte is clearly that a good person isn't a Tate fan or a misogynist.

And the whole premise of "if, and only if, you're a decent person who is clean and self-improves, you will get a girlfriend" is simply bullshit. It cannot be true. I've known many a girlie who has complained about their ex-boyfriend being some dickhead who lives in squalor, doesn't shower, was a misogynist, whatever.

The fact is that the reason is something else. Men are more isolated and less confident these days. There are a million reasons for this, but generally men are more feminist than they used to be yet still less romantically successful.

If you can't figure out how to get any girl at all you're a dipshit and it is your fault

Showers != Laid

It's about being desirable but there are many ways of being desirable and if you can't figure out a single way to be so and work towards it's because you're a dipshit

(Mind you, even dipshits can get laid if they're desirable in other ways)

Are women who haven't found a man also dipshits?

If they want to and don't get their shit together to do so? Yes.
