In light of a recent viral video, a phrase has become very popular on TikTok which has been shortened to Kaw for convenience. Let’s explore the meaning of Kaw below and check out that video.
Meaning of Kaw on TikTok
KAM was used in the recent years that means “Kill All Men” because a YouTube video made by Jenny McDermott went viral. That’s when this new expression came about and became popular.
Jenny also tweeted that she was “burnt out on being a child plant that produces more folks, who will control me later on” although her bio says that she is a “Common humanist” and a “trans-cherishing women’s activist”.
Then the term was used jokingly and casually as well. The natural response to KAM was “not all men”. In 2021, the term KAW started floating around in response to KAM. The full form of KAW is Kill All Women.
There are some TikTok sounds that are being used to show the hatred some men and women feel towards the other gender. This kind of hate is found disturbing and toxic by most of the users.
In response to these terms, there are several other hashtags that got popular like #stopsayingkillallmen and so on. Since this isn’t the only meaning of KAW, there are a lot of misunderstanding going on and accounts are being banned as well.
Here are the definitions given by Urban Dictionary –
Kill all women. Contrary to KAM
You shouldn’t say KAW since its sexist
