Re: How often do you end bad relationships?

It was originally a short-hand for racist white women who call the cops on black people existing outside and got applied to certain types of customers because the behaviour carried over. But yeah, this is what a Karen is, not just a woman who's saying no to something.

This. It didn't need to apply to white men who call the cops on black people because that's not a big phemomenon. Men don't need to involve a middleman like the cops, they "take care of" the "problem" of black people existing with their own violence. In retail, it began with white women who would threaten to talk to the manager. Men don't do that, they intimidate customers all by themselves.

da

yeah that's the origin of the term. but the first anon was talking about how the usage of the term has evolved. like many things that come from black american culture, it has spread to wide usage and grown far from its roots. the misogyny isn't from its origin, it's from how society has been very happy to embrace a term that can be used to attempt to shut women down. i'm honestly surprised to see so many people who think there isn't any misogyny involved in the popularity and widespread general use of this term.
