    Butch: Basically masc presenting person. Commonly (or at least where I’m at) used in relation more masculine fem presenting people. (But I think I may outdated, idk I’m old)

    Rizz them up: (Bear with me, I’m still old.) Basically charisma (the rizz part), in this instance it’s using one’s chariama to interact with another in an attempt to swoon them. (I think)

      Basically charisma (the rizz part)

      Think of it like “cha-rizz-ma.” It’s just a slang abbreviation, using only the middle sound of “charisma.”

      Fellow old guy here, in my early 40s. I had to figure out where “rizz” came from before it really clicked for me.

        I always thought it meant harass or annoy. Which I guess it kind of could since the times I saw it used was basically harassment with no charisma.
