authenticity 

Being who you are, listening to yourself and making your own decisions, rather than buying all the crap society foists on you. Keep it real. (authentic)

Authenticity became his primary value. My dog lives for authenticy.

Authenticity 

The real shit.

Girl-Check out this bottle of sensory deprivation pills, it helps you clear your head when you want to do shit and have a lot on your mind.

Guy-I don't really need that shit, I'm good.

Girl- I am so much more than the product I am selling, I'm the real deal yo, that's why I say shit like that sometimes. And this shit works. I take it too. And my business partner here, he fuck yo mama last night and wake up in the dumpster.

Guy- I know you're trying to sell me authenticity and pills, but really, even if you weren't superficial I wouldn't need it. I really dont need shit from you right now.

Authenticity 

This is a term that describes the rare phenomenon when normal sized parties from all over a given area conjoin to create chaos and a night filled with drunken madness. May this night be the one you never forget. May this night be the Project X you can experience only once in your lifetime. May this might be the one you rant to your kids about using it as an example of "what not to do". May this night be... Wait a minute... Let's be real here. You aren't going to remember jack shit from what happened on this given night. Not because you were too fucked up, but because it was just that mind blowing. Now that's authentic...

"Hey man, are you going to Authenticity tonight?"

"Um, is that even a question? Half of the country will be there to witness the most authentic trap house experience that the world has to offer..."
"Woah, that's deep man..."
"No... It's authentic."

Authenticity 

Yeaaah... yeah....

Hym “My authenticity was largely fueled by being in close proximity to a retard fucking whore but I was fired because I started to effect her mood (because she should be able to do whatever she wants without ever having to feel bad about it). You can blame her for that... because it’s her fault... fucking whore...”

Authenticity Testing 

Implying that someone's position on an issue or activism and volunteering is not because of a genuine held belief or passion around the issue but because they want something else like coochie or validation. People who authenticity test are usually just bad people and accuse others of being fake because they have a hard time living their values without external incentive, so they assume that others are the same way.

This can also take the form of someone saying: you're not gay enough or you're not black enough to have a certain opinion.

Guy 1: You care about period pad scarcity as a man, you're such a male pick me.

Guy 2: I used to live in a third world country - I know people that have died due to lack of menstrual care.

Guy 1: Yeah I bet that line goes hard with women.

Guy 2: You know just because you're a cynical ass that would only care about issues outside of yourself for validation doesn't mean that others are the same way. Your authenticity testing is really fucked and shows that you lack the ability to show anyone love and care if it doesn't lead you to some clout or coochie.

Authenticity Gap

The difference between how a brand, influencer, or company presents itself and what people actually experience. It’s the space between the polished marketing and the disappointing reality.

“Her LinkedIn posts are all about work-life balance, but she brags about 80-hour weeks. That’s the authenticity gap in action.”
