The act of controlling participation in a certain group or culture, it is becoming increasingly common in the punk subculture where some "punks" claim that you can't be punk if you're conservative, despite not understanding that punk doesn't care about left or right, but it's more to do with challenging the status quo irrespective of who's in power. Long story short, it leans more towards anarchy. In the Metal Community, many individuals whi listen to extreme metal will call those who listen to glam metal or hard rock gay or say it's pussy music and those who listen to them are not allowed to listen to extreme metal. Myself personally, I like to have the best of all worlds.
Gatekeeping is for idiots.

Get the Gatekeepingmug. A woman going back to her first because she doesn’t want to increase her body count. It’s about going out of your way and doing unusual things to maintain the body count digits—like tolerating toxic behavior, returning to the first after dating other men—just to avoid being called a “hoe” and to not sleep with the tenth man. Things like that.

Get the puckered gatekeepermug. Someone that doesn’t give out the information of something or tell another person about something simply because they don’t want them to have/know about it
Guy 1 “Hey can I know where you got that shirt?”, Guy 2 “No you don’t need it”, Guy 1 “Why are you gatekeeping your shirt I just wanna know where you got it.”

Get the Gatekeepingmug. You aren't more deserving of success than I am and you don't care that the retard is suceeding arbitrarily because his cock is fat do you?
Hym "Your commitment to pretending the gatekeeping is a response to ANYTHING OTHER THAN disparaging your religion is admirable. I may be a psychopathic narcissist but we are not as different as you like to pretend. Which is why the mental breakdown. This isn't a tantrum. I'm not a toddler. I SAID THAT ABOUT THE RETARD AND NOW YOU'RE ATTRIBUTING IT TO ME. I SAID HE WAS A TODDLER AND NOW YOU'RE ATTRIBUTING TO ME. I AM NOT THAT RETARD. And like heat, what I said does not apply in reverse. When I said I'd show him a temper tantrum I was obviously talking about the murdering of him in a fit of rage and not this thing I'm doing here. It's just pretending Jordan. Plugging your ears and chanting 'lalala can't hear you! Lalala!' Until I go away. It's ridiculous!"
