The Cock Confidence vs. Cock Shame meme template utilizes the expressive imagery of roosters to represent the extreme ends of the self-esteem spectrum. Typically featuring a proud, upright rooster contrasted with one that looks disheveled or defeated, it serves as a visual metaphor for the 'Virgin vs. Chad' dynamic. This meme is frequently used to mock the transition from an overconfident state to a moment of total embarrassment. It gained popularity for its literal wordplay and its relatability in scenarios like winning an argument only to realize you were wrong, or the difference between how you look going to a party versus coming home from one.
