When your body needs water and you want something to drink.
This word comes from an old word meaning dry, because your mouth feels dry when you need water.
Being thirsty is like your body is asking for a nice, cool drink! When you've been playing outside or running around, your body might say 'Please give me some water!' and that's when you feel thirsty.
In contemporary slang, 'thirsty' applied to women signals sexual desperation; applied to men signals ambition. The double standard encodes patriarchal control of female desire.
Use 'eager', 'motivated', or 'enthusiastic' instead. Avoid applying differently by gender.
["eager","motivated","enthusiastic","ambitious"]
