What is Urban Dictionary?
Urban Dictionary is a Web-based dictionary of slang words and phrases. Submissions are regulated by volunteer editors and rated by site visitors.
The definitions on Urban Dictionary are meant to be those of slang or subculture words, phrases, and phenomena not found in standard dictionaries. Most words have multiple definitions, usage examples, and tags.
Racist, homophobic, and sexist terms are acceptable as long as their definitions only document the use of such slurs and are not themselves abusive. Site guidelines recommend submitters and volunteer editors shun definitions that include in-jokes, personal references, non-celebrities, nonsense, advertisements, or descriptions of sexual violence.
Urban Dictionary is the dictionary you wrote. Define your world.
Comments and Reviews
It's a Newspeak manual, not an objective dictionary. Instead of documenting slang, they invent and rewrite definitions of various insults to suit their political needs. Many entries are targeted at specific groups questioning the mainstream narrative of certain events etc. It's very biased and one-sided. Young people would do better to think for themselves rather than spend their time on this website, thinking it's just being 'edgy' and 'non-conformist' when it's anything but.
