6. At the Core, Hegseth Is Just Yet Another Incel.

Women don't want anything to do with him. So, he hates women. At the same time, he thinks improving his appearance might change women's willingness to have anything to do with him, so he focuses on that. Many Incels work very hard to get a gym body and to look good (as they see it in their own minds).

It doesn't work, because women don't like people who are incels because they are people who are nasty-ass incels. They don't like Hegseth because he is Hegseth. That's more than enough reason not to like him.
