In your opinion, what is a "simp"?

[HawkPerception]

[WhiteSteve]

I kind of laugh at the explosion of it in this century, because I’ve been hearing it since like 1990 from Too $hort😝 It’s basically late 80s/early 90s Bay Area pimp slang. Pretty sure it’s originally short for “sympathizing” and being believed to be “too kind” to your hoes.

This is from ‘93, and I think he mentions “simpin’” on Pimpology, too, from 1990-proper…

🎶’Cause ain’t nobody trippin’ on us/You wanna fight? Fuck around and get shot up/See your ass layin’ there bleedin’, losin’ the fight/All behind a bitch and that shit ain’t right/You could live or die, it just doesn’t make a difference/‘Cause everybody know about your sorry ass simpin’ for a ho/I thought you knew, “life is…”/But the punk muthafucka couldn’t handle his🎶

Now it seems like it’s more synonymous with white knighting or maybe just generally thirsting over chicks on the internet. These are some new streets, haha.

Look up the word simpering.

[blueonblack22]

I haven’t been in a relationship in a few years now. I rather be alone and have my self respect vs. begging for attention from sh*tty disrespectful women. But I’ve seen guys who are “simpy”. And none of the photos you used really reflect that

To me a guy who is a “simp”.

1). He changes his core values to match a woman’s opinion just to date her and get sex.

Insanely this is unfortunately working for some pathetic men out there. These men attend womens rights rallies just hoping to get laid.

Women used to see right through this bs but now many of them are so warped and indoctrinated with feminist ideologies that they see it as a “sacrilege” to date men who disagree with them politically. So they date guys who “agree” with them (but they become increasingly miserable in doing so).

2). He was brainwashed by a controlling mother, culture, public school indoctrination, etc to kiss women’s asses.

This guy appears pathetic on the surface. However it really isn’t fair to label him a “simp”.

He had fear pounded into on him at very young age to never to disagree or “hurt” a woman. He’s confused, angry and frustrated. But he doesn’t even know HOW to improve. And he will have moments of rage when his pent up anger spills over.

This guy will have it the hardest in dating. He wants respect from women but was never taught to draw the line. He will act passive aggressive which ultimately turns off women.

3). He is actually content being passive

There are men out there who seriously okay with being betas. They don’t get angry or feel a loss of pride. They will get into relationships easily with controlling women.

Who cares I guess. They are in the minority and they have always existed. If that’s their natural state and if they are happy to be like that, then who are we to judge that?

But here’s the real problem. These enable the worst kind of women (who should never get dates from anybody).

Radical feminists / femcels should be banned from getting any sexual pleasure, companionship, etc from men at all. But unfortunately they can get D from these types when the they don’t deserve any D at all.

[Chazmatazz269]

“Simp” is short for simpering, or most often simperer in the modern slang context. It’s someone who demonstrates little to no self respect. Instead opting to be a lackey or flunky for someone they perceive to be better than themselves.
The modern slang use tends to be limited to men who function as sycophants for women; male feminists, white knights, friend zone dwellers, “nice guys”, etc.
One of the best portrayals of simpering in my opinion is Ned Beatty’s “Otis” from “Superman” (1978). Watch how that fool responds to “Lex Luthor”, and you have a perfectly clear concept of what it means to “simp” or to be a “simp”.

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

In my opinion? The "simp" is a kind of scapegoat in masculinist and/or incel circles, a traitor, a figurative enemy to be condemned in order to signal to the group members that one is on the right side, the side of the man reaffirming his masculinity when it feels under attack.

And it doesn’t matter whether the "simp" is a real person or a symbol. To belong to any group, you have to love the right symbols and hate the ones the group designates, because what matters is to demonstrate your allegiance to the rest of the tribe.

[choco-latte]

Guy who are constantly kissing a girl’s ass just because they’re attracted to her. Also, they will often simply ignore serious red flags just because the girl is attractive.

[browsingthroughthe]

Lol 😅 you're giving the fellas on here too much imagery lol 🍑 but I get what you meant (and that rhymes) 😁
But I've had chicks not literally but be extra nice to me as if - as if they were - 👀 gulp, into me. Me? LOL 👀👀👀

[DishLady]

Someone just told me (literally yesterday) simp = munch and I asked wth is a munch?
🙈🙉🙊🐒💨


Basically simp has been VERY overused to refer to anyone sentimental or kind and gentle. I believ the original meaning was just equivalent to being a doormat or sniveling wimp, however as with everything the meaning warped over time and as a result of lower level vocabulary training….

[HawkPerception]

The definitions of everything change over time. Just like how I used to consider the term woke as being a good thing when it started being used earlier around 2015. Then it was tossed around social media to have the negative connotation it has today.

[HawkPerception]

Same as red pill

[4ngelic]

A man who is excessively nice to a woman and does pathetic things for her in the hopes of getting her or fucking her especially when there's no chance of that happening. An exemple is the guys giving tens of thousands of dollars to OF models thinking that they'll fall for them.

[Zack-Bann]

Basically a pushover or a doormat but not necessarily with his own partner.
Also within the context of a crush.


A simp will basically throw himself at a woman’s feet willing to lick her toes just for her approval of him.
This manifests in the form of love bombing, or always agreeing with her, always showering her with compliments 24/7, always paying for everything but not in a gentlemanly way.


It’s definitely not a compliment.

[Jackblue]

I guess it is a guy who is nice to women not because he is genuinely kind, but to get in her pants. If a guy is mean to men, children, and unattractive women when attractive women aren't around to see it, he is one.

[AngryCarl3]

Nah, that a "nice guy". A simp is nice to women but he's also a pushover.

[DryGermanGuy]

It's the combination of "sissy" and "blimp".

[kültigin_tr]

No it means guys who’ll go to any length just to talk to women like me :D

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Maybe this. . .

. . . to the extreme extent

[Badtobad]

Men who think women are gods and let them manipulate and dominate them and defend toxic, evil women.

Worst kind of men

[Finchie40]

A guy that allows a girl to walk over him , that kisses her ass no matter what she does , she can cheat on him and he will still take her back he allows her to control and manipulate him

[abc3643]

Somebody who is on the receiving end of comments that should be ignored because they are uttered by idiots who don't know how to spell complete words like "simple", "simply", or "simplification".

[Chazmatazz269]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The word is actually short for simpering, genius. Look it up and try harder to remember that you’re not as smart as you think you are.

[abc3643]

@Chazmatazz269 simpering fine. I have no problem with that. It was just another simp- word that I didn't include in my list. No change in what I was asserting

[Agape93]

A person who tends to the person they love, to the degree red and black pilled assholes think its demeaning.

[FunkyMonkee]

Pretty much anybody on the left. I mean, you GOTTA be INCREDIBLY STUPID to fall for ANY of the bullshit media tells you to believe with no proof to back any of it up!!

[andreasderjuengere]

In my opinion a ''simp'' is a word construction of the 21st century that describes the lack of linguistic versatility

[Badtobad]

It has a meaning, you just don't like it

[andreasderjuengere]

@Badtobad - yes that's true. I have a basic understanding that it's a negative implication. But whatever it is specifically - there already was a word for it. I don't re-invent wheels :P

[804artist]

No backbone, and just being a “yes” man for a woman’s attention.

[kültigin_tr]

True :D:D

[slatyb]

A word made up by the man-o-sphere to label any man who is able to attract women.

[Chazmatazz269]

“Simpering” has been around for centuries, fool.

[slatyb]

@Chazmatazz269 Yes. "Simpering" is a verb, and has only a remote similarity to the meaning of "simp". The current usage as a pejorative by the man-o-sphere for men able to form healthy relationships with women is recent.

[Chazmatazz269]

Simp is short for simpering or simperer. There’s absolutely nothing “healthy” about the complete lack of self respect that simpering demonstrates.
Seems to me that you doth protest too much.

[slatyb]

@Chazmatazz269 Simper - to smile in a silly, affected, or ingratiating manner. The word "simp" was introduced in Rap lyrics in the 1980's, but the present meaning dates from 2019.

LOL. I love it when incels who can't attract a woman imply that I can't either.

[samael_kmarty]

A guy who is Madly in love with a toxic, manipulative girl.
Or with an only fan model, or a character.

[Cidknee]

I believe he bows down to a woman just to be her flunky. Let's her run over him and humiliate his sorry simp ass!

[Monicaninetyfour]

I guy who let’s woman he’s with walk all over him let her get away with everything.

[browsingthroughthe]

That said some women can and choose to be doormats by comparison lol chuckles 🚪 🤭 or a pushover lol

[browsingthroughthe]

I've seen some women even admit here. Even outside here, in the real world 🤭

[Ariesman81Nshiiit]

The stereotypical "yes, dear"

[MereAnarchy]

If you’ve been in the game 30 minutes and you don’t know who the patsy is, you’re the patsy.

A silly Idiot
