Fierce

A term mostly used by gay men to describe something good (example 1) or the way someone is dressed (example 2 and 2a). The tone of voice also matters (especially in example 2a)

Example 1
Person 1: "How was that party girl?"
Person 2: "Girl, that party was FIERCE as hell!"

Example 2
"Work! That outfit is FIERCE girl! You look good!"

Example 2a
"Hmph! No...that outfit...is FIERCE, you need to take that off right now! It is so ova"

Fierce

Since Tyra Banks' bastardized inception of the term into everyday housewife banter; gays have since denounced it. The only people that use it are middle school wannabees, straight women who think they're "down" and poser fashionista's. Anything that is to be considered "fierce" is pretty much mainstream to us gays.

Amy: "So what do you think of these Louboutin's?"

Sara: "OMFG, they are like, soooo fierce! They make your calves look totally skinny!"

Fierce

Fierce is a word used to describe strong women, however it also infers that a woman isn’t acting as we expect her to. Fierce is a particularly problematic sexist term, as it is often reserved for women of colour and reinforces the ‘angry black woman’ stereotype.

Instead of calling her fierce, he called her strong, as that was exactly what she was.
