"(New York drill music slang) A man who is overly obsessed with a woman but is only good for performing oral sex." The only citation given is the Ice Spice song Munch (Feelin' U), where the meaning is not clear. In fact WP's article on Munch (Feelin' U) says that a munch is a "particularly clueless kind of guy—a dummy, a sucker, a simp", and does not mention oral sex. So I imagine this was one fan's invention. Equinox 20:29, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article itself that WP links to does contain that description but it also claims that 'munch' means 'eater' without specifying what's being eaten. In this YT interview[1] she's equally vague about what an eater would eat but it's distinctly possible, even likely, that she's using 'eat' as a metaphor for oral sex. Also, to go off at a slight tangent, would be good to have the slang senses of 'jack' and 'blue' in this song covered here at WT). --Overlordnat1 (talk) 09:52, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Cited. It has occurred in clearer contexts, for both sexes, but none for "a munch" on Genius predating it displayed to me. I disregard the one-year criterion here since it is clear it will continue to be used till the end of this year. Fay Freak (talk) 19:12, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
