Why ‘the word’ of 2023 can be a conversation starter with Christian teens

Would you say you had ‘rizz’?

In a recent conversation between George Clooney and Tom Hanks on the Graham Norton show, they made it clear that if you say you’ve got ‘rizz’, then you almost certainly haven’t.

Actor Tom Holland has let it be known that he believes he has no ‘rizz’ !

The Oxford University Press has revealed its word of the year for 2023 and it’s ‘rizz’ defined as ‘internet slang for romantic appeal or charm’, it’s used largely by gen Z and is an oft used hashtag on TikTok. It’s linked to how likely you are to be able to attract a sexual partner and is apparently an abbreviated version of the word ‘charisma’.
