Somebody, usually a model, who has a stick-instect, gamine figure and therefore can fit into super-trendy clothes in tiny sizes. If they are a model, they change their clothes frequently and always look cool (in the fashion world, at least).
Someone who's main pleasure in life is derived from dressing fashionably; this is often accompanied by the collection of obscenely large quanitities of clothing that may or may not be worn more than once.
me: I went shopping again >guilty shuffling of feet<
friend: What did you buy?
me: This dress. It was $150.00
(sidenote: we are poor students)
friend: OH MY GOD!
me: No but wait - it was half price!!!
friend: >rolls eyes< Didn't you buy a pair of stilletos last week that were "half price"? That's MEANINGLESS. You're such a clotheshorse.
The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
