Dad Mode: This One Definitely Needs a Discussion
It means sex. Your kid spelled it weird because TikTok's algorithm flags the real word and suppresses the video. The fact that an entire generation learned to self-censor for an algorithm is... something a sociologist should probably look into. For now, just know that if your kid writes 'seggs' in a text, they mean exactly what you think they mean.
Came from: TikTok (algorithmic censorship)
Examples
“they were talking about seggs in class lol”
“They were talking about sex in class”
