exhibitionist

A person who indulges in public displaying their physical appearance but also their power, wealth or personality.

For example, they might dress in extravagant or thought-provoking looks or post an excessive number of photos of themselves on social media.

We disagree with most definitions in mainstream dictionaries as "a person who behaves in ways intended to attract attention". While this might be true in many cases, they seem to force a psychological interpretation of their behaviour we are not able to judge.

Not to be confused with the psychiatric definition of exhibitionist referred to those who show their genitalia in public.

exhibitionist

Usually a wild chick who forthrightfully declares she gets off on doing it in public areas--and proceeds to "exibit" such.

Tinder Exhibitionist

Someone who uses the dating app Tinder in public and makes it blatantly easy for others to watch their swiping spree.
Scientists have speculated that this externalizing behavior may arise from a desire or compulsion to expose one's own swiping preferences and mating partner fetishes. The Tinder Exhibitionist may find amusement or even sexual satisfaction out of their indecent dating exposure.
Dan: "Man, Johnny did again! He was sitting in the train with people around him and swiped furiously on Tinder and everyone was watching because one just cannot look away for obvious reasons!"
Jack: "Johnny is such a Tinder Exhibitionist. I told you this!"

guerrilla exhibitionism

the act of two or more people exposing themselves from different points.
In a large city, somebody runs down the street, pulls down their pants near a police officer, and yells "guerrilla exhibitionism". Then, when the cop is chasing him, somebody jumps out of a bush and does the same. A 3rd person could be on top of a roof, and a 4th driving by.
