a man who is too attentive and submissive to womenÂ
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. Translation: The word simp is meant to troll young men for doing anything for a girl to get some action he supposedly deserves. While much older as a term, simp massively trended in late 2019 and early 2020 due in part to a TikTok trend among male members of Generation Z called “Simp Nation.” The slang has been criticized for stereotyping such men as effeminate and implying women are manipulative sexual objects.Â
