Form of gaslighting where someone acts like the victim after wronging you. For instance, if someone ends up saying you're harassing them saying "you're sensitive" or "grow up". This form of manipulation causes a lot of damage in relationships and leads people to feel they are the "issue" after all. This behavior has been seen by entitled people mainly "Karen's" and "Chad's". In the end people who victim play do not take responsibility for initiating an issue and end up making you out to be the issue. They will commonly say things like "yes, but everyone is using skull emojis", etc. They have serious issues accepting responsibility for their actions of any sorts in society. They often call the police on people when they feel wronged or end up calling for "backup".

Compound Verb.
Something politically incorrect is said or done regarding an individual which is actually a compliment. The mindset of the target is often as follows.
>Hey!
>Hey Everyone!
>Look At Me!
>I'm so attractive and desirable that some guy spent a ton of time obsessing over me
>He's so obsessed with my beauty that he spent a ton of time imagining me naked
>cuz I'm so hot
>ME
>PAY ATTENTION TO ME
The target of a wolf whistle or cat call can express outrage but the give away is the smile they'll have on their face while doing so.
The following anecdote illustrates victim bragging in process.
I was once walking home from Uni with a girl and some guy catcalled her from a passing car.
She spent the entire remainder of the day telling everyone we met how terrible and demeaning the incident was, all the while wearing a shit-eating grin on her face. That catcall was her proudest achievement that year I'd imagine.
