Karen

A meta-analysis of 76 definitions of ‘Karen’ on Urban Dictionary reveals that only approximately 5% of the defining characteristics have a Karen being ‘racist’. The overwhelmingly definitive characteristics of the stereotype are, in order: that she wishes to speak to the manager (with a subset threatening to call the police) 28.25%; that she has kids, more than one, is overley protective and always takes them after the divorce 22.03%; that she has a swept, layered bob hairdo 11.06%; and that she is white and middle aged, both 10.73%.
Her attitudes to masks, vaccines, minorities and her own entitlement put together constitute less than 17% of the character of a Karen.
These facts have apparently presented no barrier to a cynical appropriation of this stereotype and the projection onto it of the fanciful notion that America is a fundamentally racist society, as portrayed in the recently released movie ‘Karen’. So few people will take the time to familiarise with the etymology of newly coined words that we are on the brink of millions of Americans being led dumbly by this movie to the conclusion that a Karen is a racist, illustrating that a politicised Hollywood and Madison avenue are the graveyards of natural language.

Me: 'Horse's bolted Ben’

Karen

A lady with short Karen cut hair that complains a lot, asked for the corporate to the manager, overreacts, and using screaming and the classic excuse of "IM CALLING 911 ON YOU" for no reason as a threat to think they're "smart" and "big and scary"

I totally disagree with the Karen’s generalisation. The Karen i know is the most honest person i know , impulsive , saucy in a good way , no filters , secretive but with the biggest gold heart in the world , even when she have nothing she will give you everything. She’s not a bad person , she’s just picky , she choose who she wants in her life cause she prefer true relations than fake persons. She’s hilarious when you get to know her , sarcastic , and very smart. Pretty woman , with black-hair , tan skin , and black eyes , a real Latina ! I wish her to be happy in her life and to be with someone who will value her and put her in a pedestal cause she deserve this ! I want her to trust herself…
Me annoying her : « Karen do you love me ? »
Karen sarcastic joke : « no i hate you »
