Why would they be "incel" then? There are loads of right leaning women who probably complain that there are no men who want a traditional family anymore. There are seven billion humans. If you can't find one with common values you might be looking in the wrong places. Of course a woman with traditional family and religious desires is still going to want to be treated with respect, so maybe that's a problem (from what I've seen of the "red pill" cult that overlaps incels). A major gripe of stay at home moms I know is that men do not respect the importance of what they do or the validity of their choice and look down on them.

They are incel because they want sex and don't have it. That is not the same thing as wanting traditional familly. They essentially want trophy girlfriend as a social status symbol not a person. They are not willing to deal with relationships ups and downs and compromises that happen in traditional families. They are not closed in their rooms long term nor necessary unemployed. They go to school, gym, meet like minded friends.

Are you asking why they are incapable of finding sexual partners if they have some basic level of social competence? The incel movement is mostly a self fulfilling prophecy. A group of men who failed to get partners and rather than attributing the failure to themselves, attributed it to the women. Thinking that they are low quality males and it is the women’s fault that their standards are too high. In the absence of this belief, they could probably find someone as you say. But they have convinced themselves that women as a collective will not accept men of their caliber. It’s an unusual message of “it’s not my fault I’m bad” and you won’t find much logic to it. Basically it’s angry men with low self esteem but high entitlement.
