A woman whose behavior is characterized--by most standards--to be self-serving, self-preserving, self-entitled and is directly influenced by privilege. The Karen is accustomed to First World Problems and of being pampered. The Karen takes full advantage of her pussy pass and often uses it to get her way. When the Karen sniffs the unsettling odor of NO MAAM, her hormones go on overdrive and she becomes a ruthless, manipulative, narcissistic cretin whose response is typically in the form of a tantrum. During these egregious spectacles, the Karen becomes highly offended by her needs not being met and she eventually has a crisis in which she resorts to taking on the role of victim. When that fails, the Karen becomes unpredictable and is prone to taking drastic measures in order to get her way. These last resort acts of desperation can include:
-Threatening to call the police.
-Threatening to sue.
-Integrating racial slurs into the conversation.
-Resorting to physical assault.
-Framing others and making maliciously false accusations.
-Doing a little jig of defiance when she realizes she is being recorded.
-Dehumanizing others.
There is hope yet for the Karen, which usually is the result of public shaming and reprimand as a consequence of recordings of her disgraceful and petty behavior going viral to a global audience.
The Karen will always believe others were petty for not letting her get her way and will genuinely perceive herself as a victim of disobedient people.

That Karen is making a scene over having to wear a mask, arguing she is under no obligation to be considerate for the well-being of others, and that she has the right to be ignorant and believe Covid-19 is a conspiracy, which--in the meantime--exempts her from any responsibility should others get sick because she insists she has a healthy immune system.
That Karen is making a tempest in a teacup!
That Karen told me to go back to where I came from because my dog growled at her.
I spoke Spanish to my Spanish speaking Hispanic mama and that Karen dove over 2 tables to demand I speak English because "Spanish is for Spain!"

Karen is someone (usually a female) who is easily offended by everything. Karens are very aggressive and they complain about everything. Almost every Karen doesn't wear a mask because she thinks ts useless or she says that she can't breathe. Please don't be a Karen.

A middle-age blonde white woman who gets her kicks out of creating undeserved misery to innocent people usually for example either demanding to speak with the manager or calling the police on an African-American male with the expectation that the encounter will end badly.
A Karen showed up at an HOA meeting to accuse the property manager of not doing anything to address landscaping issues by yelling and screaming at the manager demanding to know what the CC&Rs say about this and refusing to leave when asked to leave.

A particularly annoying person often described as entitled or a bitch. Karen's have many different attacks depending on what level of Karen they are.
Stage 1 Karens:
These often have 2 main attacks, the first is to ask for a manager and the second is to record you.
Stage 2 Karens:
These include stage 1 but can also yell homophobic, racist and bigoted ideals at you depending on their personal choices.
Stage 3 Karens:
everything from stage 1 and maybe stage 2 but these will physically try to fight you.

(n.): The attitude of a white woman, often in her 40s or 50s, who purposely or naively solidifies the status of her white privilege. She is a stay-at-home mom, votes Republican, lives on a street that ends in a cul-de-sac in the suburbs, is (or was) married to a successful husband, has called the police to report a black person for "acting suspiciously," drives her unvaccinated kids to soccer practice in a large SUV, talks about minorities in a different tone of voice or refers to them as "those people," drinks wine, dyes her hair, insists that calling her a "Karen" is alternatively racist or sexist, and is currently demanding to see a manager for not being served her iced mocha frappachino quickly enough.
Not all Karens are actually named Karen. Some others are named Becky or Stacy. All are extremely active on social media.

"Calling me a Karen is more offensive than the N word" is the most Karen thing to say.
A group of Karens is called The View.
