Frequently asked

What makes a caption 'baddie'?

Confidence + brevity + zero explanation. 'I'm the moment' works. 'I'm the moment, I think you should know' does not. The shorter the better.

Should I use baddie captions if I'm a guy?

Yes. The genre is gender-neutral — it's an energy, not an aesthetic. 'I don't chase, I attract' reads the same on any profile.
