...what is "mogging on other men" ... if it's gross I don't want to know. Just please tell me "it's gross" that's enough. But if it's not gross can someone explain?
"Mogging" started out as "AMOG" - Alpha Male of Group.
Its a term where you're stating that the referred to figure is more physically attractive than others.Sort of like screaming "I'm the cutest" but in baritone.

@futurebird βTo mogβ is to sexually outclass. Just learned today. Part of the looksmaxxing and manosphere scenes.

@futurebird I just checked Urban Dictionary. It appears to be gross. (At least I think so).
@GinevraCat @futurebird
wiktionary has a non-gross definition.

@futurebird it just means looking better than other guys and bragging about it I think - βlookmaxxingβ (from teaching middle school kids)

@futurebird something about physically outshining other men in a social setting, perhaps in a toxic masculinity kind of way. Like being taller, buffer, more handsome.

@sovietfish @llewelly @futurebird This is very confusing.
(not the definition, but the "why?!?") -
So... it's like voguing?
@futurebird no idea. I don't know that vouging and can't find a definition.

@llewelly @futurebird Walking around Hilo, Hawaii when there's vog (volcanic fog?) (cough, cough, cough, lung bits)

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/mog#English@llewelly @futurebird So, all in the context, basically.

@futurebird Probably best summarised by some guy saying "I'm more manly than him, call me when you want a real man."

@futurebird
It just means to be a dominating or intimidating presence. -

@futurebird I think "mogging" is something along the lines of "styling" or just "looking cool"
-
@sovietfish @llewelly @futurebird This is very confusing.
(not the definition, but the "why?!?")@ai6yr @llewelly @futurebird I honestly find it more weird & surprising when we *are* able to speak with confidence about etymology. So much about language is arbitrary
-
@futurebird Being better looking and more dominant than other men.
I shit you not. It's like Red Pill shit, but "I'm pretty."
@AnarchoNinaWrites @futurebird
Oh my. Though I suspect they don't mean "pretty" by "better looking". Rather "more male".

@glitzersachen @futurebird I mean these are people who hit themselves repeatedly in the face with bottles and heavy rounded objects to look more like a Nazi Elf.
Does that work? No. But they do it anyway.
Nothing about the "looksmaxing" wing of the Manosphere is NOT ridiculous.

@futurebird I'm going to go with the prescriptivist "it has no meaning and can be safely ignored," which serves me well with so much new usage.
Yes, I read the other replies and I'll concede that some people say it and others hear it and interpret it in the intended way, but I feel safe rejecting and/or ignoring it, as appropriate, and I invite you to join me. If we ignore it long enough, it might go away.

Hahaha. Seriously. You couldn't invent this. As a book it would not be printed for the outlandish premise.

@ottsatwork @futurebird Wait, only men can mog? This is why I don't risk trying any slang beyond "geriatric Zoomer" level
