    Not until we get another word for the same persona.

    And for some reason we can’t use “bitch” anymore.

      Well, that’s the problem.

      Karen is just an excuse to call women something without having the guts to be up front about it.

      Originally, it was about a specific kind of entitled behavior. But it turned into a generic misogynist term like bitch used to be.

        Karens aren’t just women.

        But if you disagree, can you let me know what word we use for men? I’m happy to use that for everybody.
