mogging

Outshining someone, usually by being better looking or taller. To get "mogged" is to be made to look worse next to someone.

He stood next to the basketball team and got mogged.

For parents and educators

Often a playful jab between friends. It comes from a culture that ranks people by looks, and therapists note it can feed insecurity. If your child uses it about themselves, ask how they feel about how they look.

Where it came from

From an old forum acronym for "alpha male of the group," popularized by looksmaxxing content.

Also heard as
