i clenched tightly but the puckered gatekeeper betrayed me, releasing a silent but deadly one just as the elevator door slid shut.

Get the puckered gatekeeper mug.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.

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 gatekeeping mug.To limit how much control a certain party/person has in a collective identity or activity. Usually carried out with undue pettiness or resentment. Instead of using their knowledge about a particular subject to improve their lives or help others, gatekeepers attain a sense of accomplishment by arbitrarily judging what is and isn't "real".
*A normal social media comment section*
A: "Who watches anime in DUB?? It's so cringe and sounds completely forced. I would know! I am studying to be a translator. I have been consuming Japanese media for over 25 years! I can tell you that the speech sounds wrong and ruins the personality of the characters!! If you were a real anime fan you would just watch SUB!!"
B: "Niggas be hating on their own language and gatekeeping ANIME. Subs are hard to watch when eating. I can only watch while eating food because I'm not a bum ass nigga with nothing to do besides beat my meat while hugging a life-size waifu pillow and managing my kittens on discord."
And thus, two members of the same community who could have been friendly toward each other are now enemies due to the consequences of gatekeeping.
