OK, tell me, what the heck is butthurt?

In English, please, I’m old and set in my ways, new fangled words scare me.

A silly word for a silly emotion.

Butthurt:
An inappropriately strong negative emotional response from a perceived personal insult. Characterized by strong feelings of shame. Frequently associated with a cessation of communication and overt hostility towards the “aggressor.”

As in: butthurt conservative:

A conservative that feels victimized when something doesn’t go their way. Often comes with the feeling that anything that doesn’t reflect their world view has some unfair bias against them.
