Google says “Simping” means foolishly over catering to the exaggerated emotions of women. Simping can also mean a man being in his feelings and allowing a woman to take over his mind. The terms “Simp” and “Simping” nowadays is commonly used to criticize and mock men who overvalue women and feel entitled to women's attention.


This whole thing sounds like it was created by men who hate women. What do you all think of this term?

If to live in this style is to be eccentric, it must be confessed that there is something good in eccentricity.

a simp is a cuck who pays but isn't in a relationship. they are both beta males, but their is a difference.

if you ever find yourself confused over if someone is a cuck or a simp, simply ask "are they in anyway a relationship? are

they courting as though they may start one?" if no then they are a simp.

Yeah, I thought it was mostly a put-down for nice guy behavior. But fear not, incels caught wind of it and are "reclaiming" the word! So now it's used for any one who talks positively about a woman. Ever.

On Twitch it means saying something non negative about women, not sure about elsewhere.

It originally started as a guy who watched like a twitch e girl and would give hundreds of dollars to hear her say his name. Then it became the new internet word of the day to insult or put down a guy for caring about women. Someone saying it unironically is a good sign they should be ostracized and shunned by society.

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

Tbqh, respecting women is very cool but falling all over yourself and playing yourself out to try to get sex from a woman is lame. That's pretty much the jist of it, I think.

This song is badly outdated and misogynistic but there's a grain of truth in it that men shouldn't try to use money and status to attract women if they want to find a good partner. Our loving president is a simp because he doesn't understand that concept.

i get that it's handy to have a term for the guys that desperately try to buy attention from women online (or offline I guess), but it seems like the instant after it hit broader internet consciousness it got run into the ground.

now, like cuck, it just gets thrown around anytime a guy expresses any remotely positive sentiment about anyone female, or also if they just disagree about anything in particular, or if they think they might disagree, or if they just don't like the look of someone

also it sounds gross. the word itself is viscerally unpleasant.

I think any terminology that categorically tries to define any sort of gendered behavior either directly or by proxy should be thrown into the trash. Growing up as a straight male you get handed all these bogus nuggets of wisdom about how to interact/not interact with women. The sooner you realize that its all bullshit and you should just be cool and respectful and take people as they come the better off you'll be.

You know that slimy arse kisser at work OP? The guy who is always sucking up to the boss in a really sickening way.

Well replace the boss in this scenario with a woman on the internet. And compliments about decision making, "guts", sharp suits and golfing ability with compliments about being beautiful, smart and funny and you basically have a simp.

A simp is that guy, only instead of a promotion or pay rise they're trying to get sex, a modicum of attention from their internet waifu/manic pixie gamer girl.

Yes I am aware that all simps, or at least all those who have jobs are almost certainly also "that guy" at work.
