token't

Like a token, except not so much. A bit like a token straight friend in a gay friendship group, except the straight person is NOT there to show acceptance of straight people, rather they are valued more based on who they are rather than including their orientation in the group.

Jimmy: "Oh, you've got a new straight guy in your friend group, IMAGINE having tokens lol"
Jasper: "No, Karl isn't a token straight. He's a token't: we judge on personality not on orientation!"

Token

A minority that was deliberately put on a show or movie for the sake of being culturally diverse. They get few lines so less mistakes are made and few to no flaws. Tokens are written for specially because everyone knows people who look different MUST act different.

We get this predictable bullshit all because of those few assholes who keep a phone next to the TV when they watch it and have their lawyer on speed-dial.

token mom

(noun) A woman who is routinely brought out for a night on the town by her daughter's group of friends because the daughter considers her mom to be funny, cute and witty (like in a sitcom) where in reality she is none of these things. This mom/daughter relationship is usually classified as 'best buddies.' The token mom often cramps the style of the women as she unofficially serves as a watchdog prohibiting any of the girls to pick up any 'meat.'

The drummer's chances of banging one of the hotties was high, but the token mom had the hots for him so nobody got laid last night.
