As the video-sharing platform keeps getting bigger and bigger so does its slang. So, the words we haven’t heard are also getting more confusing. Some words are simply abbreviations coined by Gen Z, to level up the game of millennials. While some of the abbreviations end up creating more controversy than it was intended to. The latest of this discussion is KAW. So, what does KAW mean on TikTok? Scroll down to find out!
What Does KAW Mean?
The term KAW is being used for opposing previously popular slang. KAW means Kill All Women. As it is with most of the slang on TikTok, it is difficult to find the user who popularized this slang. But from what websters can vouch for, the abbreviation is in response to KAM meaning kill all men. This was first coined by Youtube creator Jenny McDermott. The Youtuber had coined the term to talk about secular humanism in a twisted way. She stated that since women give birth to more men, they need to take care of them, or soon the men will take care of them. Hence, the term KAM (Kill all Men).
