The Theresa May meme primarily stems from her stiff and awkward dance moves during a 2018 visit to South Africa and her subsequent entrance to the ABBA song 'Dancing Queen' at the Conservative Party Conference. Often referred to as the 'Maybot,' her robotic movements quickly became a viral sensation, symbolizing forced relatability and political awkwardness. The template is widely used to represent situations where someone is trying to act cool or confident despite feeling completely out of place, or simply to express a quirky, stiff-legged march into a room or situation.
