pimping
Managing sex workers
Pimping is the activity of managing prostitutes and taking a share of their earnings.
A pimp recruits sex workers, arranges clients, and often provides protection—though the relationship frequently involves exploitation or coercion.
In slang, pimping describes ostentatious style or flashy self-presentation: He was pimping in that gold chain.
To pimp something out is to customize it extravagantly: pimping out his car with chrome rims.
