/ˈsɪmp/
(especially North American
English, informal, dirogatory)
used to refer to a person, especially a man, that is willing and committed to invest
time and money for women they barely know so they feel recognized and rewarded.
People who pay for porn are not automatically simps. Since there are plenty of free
nudes out in the web the motivation comes from the feeling of having a personal relationship with the subject of desire. The false impression of being recognized or having dreams intimite or even romantic relationships reveal simps having limited social skills or low self-esteem. This might manifest in low
courage to speak up or an acceptance of adultery or prostitution by the partner. Therefore men who actively support their partners monetized peepshows (e.g. "onlyfans") might also be called simps.
