pick me

the term “pick me” is a term used to refer to people who feed into narratives that are personally oppressive to them in an attempt to gain the approval, attention and/or validation of their oppressor. an example of this is a woman who puts down other women and feeds into misogynistic stereotypes in order to seem more appealing to sexist men in hopes of gaining their approval.

1. Becky always makes sexist jokes, makes fun of and shames rape victims, and shames other women when she’s around groups of men. Every time she’s around a guy- especially when she knows for sure he’s sexist- she will call other women dishwashers & go out of her way to put down the women around them with insults based in misogyny. She’s such a “pick me.
