Ratchetness

You might think this word means ghetto, dirty, trashy, loud, and hoeish ...BUT

This word is used to downgrade a beautiful individual or a group of beautiful women out of jealousy.

Women that are called ratchet are most likely women who are intelligent, low key, gorgeous, amazing, and fabulous with a down to earth personality.

Ratchetness is a term used by haters.

"Hey you see those girls over there doing the Macarena, dancing with each other around a pile of shoes, but still looking all cute?"

"Yea gurlll... ratchetness!"

"I know gurrllll!"
