The word "Sigma" originated as a letter in the greek alphabet. However, in recent years it has begun to adopt an internet slang meaning. From early 2021, videos began appearing on TikTok of people editing Patrick Bateman in the movie 'American Psycho.' In late 2022 and 2023, there was mass spreading of a short clip which featured Patrick Bateman doing a series of facial expressions, often accompanied by multiple other videos, often of characters smiling and lightly shaking their heads. The clip was soon shortened to just Patrick Bateman. He would pout out his lips in a kissing expression and then smile. It is unknown who captioned the clips with the word Sigma, but it soon became viral. While with the fame of people like Andrew Tate, who promoted masculinity, Sigma was defined as a strong, masculine person. Although originally meant to be a serious word used to describe men who focused on themselves instead of women, people memed it. Users on TikTok started saying how people would say "Sigma" over anything, and influencers endorsed this idea, posting somewhat unfunny and rude videos ending with the Patrick Bateman clip. Today, Sigma is a word that is almost always only used in an ironic sense.

Get the skibidi sigma gyatt ohio rizz rizzler +10000 aura💀 mug.sigmas are people that have had to raise themselves by themselves from very young age and have had to face direct experiences from life exposed to it's very elements. We have learned early to face the reality of the world with little or any filter forcing us to find solutions and make decisions for ourselves without looking for approval or others input, making us build a frame of mind that others are not able to see through unless we genuinely decide to open up to share. We are very rebellious to and very detached from conventional societal norms. We are enigmatic because we dare to live and venture outside all known norms to carve the life that we envision for ourselves. Sigmas choose authenticity and truth over blending in with the crowd of systematic mediocrity.
