The term “welfare queen” was a negative nickname used in politics starting in the 1970s. It described women who were said to cheat or take advantage of government help programs (called welfare). The problem is that the term was unfair and based on stereotypes, often targeting women of color. Most people who received help did not cheat the system. Today, people see the phrase as offensive because it spreads a false and harmful image.
