Meanings
- uncountableincel slangThe notion that women, especially white women, would rather engage in bestiality than have sex with unattractive men.
Relevant to this quote is the Incel ”theory” of the ”Dogpill” which argues that women are more likely, and prefer, to have sex with dogs over ugly men.

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.
2020, Lisa Sugiura, “Engaging with Incels: Reflexivity, Identity and the Female Cybercrime Ethnographic Researcher” (chapter 24), in Anita Lavorgna, Thomas J. Holt, editors, Researching Cybercrimes: Methodologies, Ethics, and Critical Approaches, →DOI, →ISBN, page 486Or “take the dogpill,” meaning to acknowledge the fact that women would prefer to have sexual intercourse with a dog before an incel, and (according to commonly accepted wisdom in the incel community) many do.
