UK BEAST

What Does UK Beast Mean?

UK Beast means "Unattractive Girl or Woman from the United Kingdom." It is a misogynistic term that first went viral online in 2022, when it was used by a YouTuber who made an unflattering comparison between "attractive and feminine" French women and "beasts in the UK." It emerged into the mainstream in December 2023, when a contestant on the popular television show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here used it to refer to a fellow contestant, who just happened to be a black woman.

Subsequently, the use of UK Beast surged on social media, sparking a conversation among black women about how they feel the term is targeting them. However, this prompted an angry reaction from many white misogynists, who protested that black women were misappropriating their vernacular. In turn, this triggered a response from left-wing commentators, who accused the misogynists of racism for denying the black women their right to feel offended. This in turn prompted many people to reflect on the damage that social media continues to do to society!
