Example of gatekeeping:
Anyone born in 2007 is a tide pod eating 2010 kid who doesn't deserve to have a opinion.

The girl who can't get a guy, usually drinks the most and is always a cock blocker. There is usually one in most groups (girls group).
One of the 'The Gatekeepers' friends are chatting with a guy, she would then cock block them in anyway possible.
