doorbitch

In the home party (aka homepar, homepah, homepa, HP) culture, especially in Asian countries like Malaysia, Thailand, and Taiwan, a doorbitch is the person assigned by the homepar host to verify if the person is actually invited or not. The invitation comes in different forms, most commonly, a wrist band or an FB event invite.

The doorbitch must be by the door at all times and responsible for many things, including but not limited to the following:
- primary contact person to the venue
- the person who opens and closes the venue door
- must verify the guest is on the guest list
- makes sure that the plus-one of an invited guest has been given approval by the host to join the homepar
- ensures that the volume of the homepar from outside is within acceptable limits
- has the power to deny or accept a person at his own discretion
- must monitor the homepar's headcount
- report any commotion to the host within or outside the venue, and
- ensures everyone's safety

The term was first used by D.To in a homepar setting during the Divine Bliss Resurrection events in Malaysia last August 2018.

Dude 1: Do you already have an invite to tonight's homepar?
Dude 2: Yeah, I do. I also know the doorbitch, I can plus-one you.
