Rawdogging is a social media trend in which an airline passenger completes an entire trip without using any amenities such as music, movies, books, snacks, or even sleep. This term is often seen on social media platforms like TikTok, Twitter, or Snapchat, where users share their rawdogging experiences.
Origin of rawdogging
The slang term "rawdogging" originated in June 2022 when a Twitter user posted about a man in his 20s staring at the seatback in front of him for the entirety of a 3-hour flight. However, it didn't take off (pun intended) in widespread popularity until the summer of 2024.
Primarily embraced by men, this trend has become a challenge to disconnect from modern conveniences. While many find it difficult, some participants view it as a liberating experience, using the time to clear their minds in a meditative state or just stare at the flight map in the seatback in front of them.
Please note that rawdogging also refers to unprotected intercourse.
