What is a simp?
If you have found yourself trapped in the downward spiral of TikTok, chances are you’ve come across, or possibly even been labelled a ‘simp’. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that the term is hardly endearing, but there has been an alarming amount of confusion over the true simp meaning.
What is a simp?
Simp is a slang insult for men who are seen as too attentive and submissive to women, especially out of a failed hope of winning some entitled sexual attention or activity from them.
The word simp is meant to troll young men for doing anything for a girl to get some action he supposedly deserves.
Put simply, a simp is: Someone who tries way too hard to impress the person they like, often going above and beyond to satisfy their every need. This, in turn, devalues them as a person, acting subservient to their crush or partner.
Example: If telling his girlfriend he would always be there for her makes him a simp, then I guess he’s been simping for a long time now.
According to a TikTok posted by NoChillTy, there are some obvious markers of a simp. Here are 9 ways to identify a Simp;
- Always doing the most for a female that doesn’t like them.
- ‘Where my hug at?’
- Always trying to impress females.
- Puts females before themselves.
- Will defend a female just for a drop of *cat emoji*.
- Hates slander of any female.
- Has no game when coming to females so they only try to impress them by doing everything for them.
- Lets females walk over them.
- Constantly getting curved.
