More and more I see the term "Karen" being applied to men also, not in the "sissy" sense, but in the complainant, shrill, ball-buster sense.

I have not. Not a single time. Seen Karen refer to men

Honestly, TIMS seem like the biggest Karen’s out there. I’d suggest calling them out on it, but they’d probably love it, and view it as “validation.”

They absolutely embody the worst of the Karen stereotype, from bad hair to trying to get people fired to expecting the world to cater to them.

We should start referring to them as Timmies and Tiffanies.

Women expecting standards to be upheld in public are called "Karen". We should learn from them if anything, expect better from people. Hold people to a standard. Stop calling each other names, it solves nothing.

I've seen it very recently (only) on some of the large reddit subs, which makes sense because most comments are pretty rapid fire, and this insult may be the first to come to mind, and on top of this, the usernames are sexless. (the text responded to, however, were obviously by males but probably passed over by the commenter)
