Just as one trend is taking over this summer, another one is on the rise. Don’t sleep on the Gen Z because they are quick-witted. The latest viral trend taking the internet by storm: “demure.”

Let’s start with the definition. Demure refers to someone modest, reserved, or serious. Here are a few things that are “very demure, very mindful” in our city.

  • Returning your e-scooter in its designated place after using it (very demure, very mindful)
  • Helping out someone in need (very demure, very modest)
  • Going the appropriate speed on I-40 (very demure)
  • Inserting a lock symbolizing your love at the Quarry at Grant Park (very demure, very cutesy)
  • Being the friend who’s subscribed to WStoday (very demure, very cutesy)
