Seriously, why is "simp" considered an insult?

[©ThΣKämikαzeMΏήkΞ¥s™]

It's just a word...IMO.

[Castyles]

I could write the same thing about the N word and the C word.

It's because we live in a society, really.

Have you... looked up what the word means? It's meant to be an insult, but it's one of the most misused words this year.

Don't laugh at me, but was called one because I was dating someone. And I find the word stupid because there is little to no man who would do anything for a ♥♥♥♥♥. But if a man acts so, maybe he is just acting or lying just make fun of her or just being sarcastic. When a woman appears to be easy, maybe its a person which no one should date due to internal problems.

Just a word?

[The Commendatore]

What does it even mean?

If you believe this, then why did you make that thread using the word simp?

Idk, nothing. Because words don't even hurt.

I don't really find it insulting, like if I wanted to insult someone I wouldn't pick that word...

[Ultimate Anime GF]

Probably for reasons similar to why "sycophant" is considered an insult.

[Cheeseburgers & Beer]

Words are nothing, throw your gauntlet at their feet to insult properly and demand a duel

[cs8492]

In all honesty it looks like it's meant as a ego or pride hit. The most common context I see the word used is when a guy settles for whatever girl he can get. A crude replacement for "You could do better".

In all honesty the same people that ♥♥♥♥♥ about it's use are the same morons that spout the word "incel" at anything that dares question modern femenist ideology. Frankly its astounding the mental gymnastics these people do to justifiy shutting down conversation with a single word, while crybulling people that they are the victims.

[gugnihr]

As far as I know it refers to men who are so in awe towards women and also desperate that they will let women do anything to them, no matter how bad it is, hoping to get laid that way.
If letting your balls throw the rest of yourself in the trash like that is not insulting I don't know what it could be.

Not really, it is because of the social contruction we have build up, not as much society itself, which is also a social contruct. Personally I think the most important thing is the intention behind using the word and if you target an individual, if it is used to harm a individual on purpose, with ill intend, it should have a consequence.

But ofc.. If people would understand words are wind, it would be a more simple life for us. Since that is not the case, you could pretty much hijack or make up your own word and then use it to make people cry or get offended, it is sad but true.

Well you can't have a bunch of grown up going "SIMP SIMP SIMP SIMP" to eachother, that's why we have nice and pleasant debates to settle our disputes.

If be hope be so well as to be so mannered and behaved as to abide by these rules and requisites....

Not to come over as dirty rotten apes, you know.

Oops, hehehehe.

Slinging 'mud' at each other.

Lol don't be mad at me, but sycophants help us expose the currupt. Nothing wrong with them.

You seem awfully confused? Sycophants are the corruption, never the solution. Ass-kissing ♥♥♥♥-ups, yes-men, etc. are phony, deceitful, unreliable, untrustworthy, and disloyal.

From the sounds of things, this "simp" thing seems like it might be something similar?

If you believe this, then I wouldn't trust you either. Some of us prefer to spend our time around people with character, and actively avoid those who "would do anything" to get what they wanted.

As a final note, that sort of behaviour can only get you one thing - a woman looking for a doormat to wipe her feet on. I'm sure that will work out great in some cases, but it will also turn off a lot of other women in the process. There are women out there who appreciate a guy who isn't afraid to speak his mind and challenge them from time to time.
