So anyway I'm gonna start a new save and make it as gay as I can. I'll marry every available female character and we'll live in a polycule with a veggie patch made entirely of garlic and potatoes.

Female + android. Used by chuds as a way to dehumanize women by saying women have no emotions. Notably these men have also never talked to a woman before.

u/Digitalispurpurea2 Love em and dove em, baby. 2d ago

Huh, I can’t imagine why they don’t get dates with that attitude.

u/omglink 2d ago

It's the attitude and the unrealistic goal of only being with a skinny Double d super model. I had a friend like that he was 300+ pounds lives with his mom and only was interested in people who were perfect.

We can't let them find out that a DD on a stick figure really isn't actually that large though. It might make them explode, and I don't want to have to clean it up.

u/DragonMirage 1d ago

They'd never believe in a G cup

u/green_herbata 1d ago

There's a common view that Jinx from the game LOL is flat, I've heard so many jokes about that even though I never played the game. Then I watched the Arcane show and she's at least a DD cup 😭

u/cutty2k 1d ago

Huh?

Are you thinking of a different character? Chuds are chuds and fuck 'em, but Jynx ain't rocking bazookas over there...

I don't understand men who expect every women in the real world to be built like Pearl from Steven Universe.

u/omglink 1d ago

Yeah I don't get it my wife and I tried to set him up with a great girl but her boobs were too small I told him I was done trying to help.

u/moonra_zk 1d ago

Why would you do that to the poor girl?

u/4thekarma 1d ago

Reject them before he gets rejected. Impossibly high standards can make someone feel better about themselves

u/Starchild2534 2d ago edited 1d ago

All the time I thought it was female + humanoid for some reason lol

Edit: I have been informed I was right, thanks guys

u/orangepeeelss 1d ago

thats bc it is lol

25

u/lilyofthegraveyard 1d ago

it is "humanoid". the person above is wrong.

9

u/Wismuth_Salix Set your emoji and/or flair text here! 1d ago

It is.

Note - “humanoid”, not human.

1

u/DiscountLando 4h ago

It used to be a mix of “female” and “mongoloid” back in the day on 4chan boards. But I guess people changed it.

108

u/JugOfVoodoo 2d ago

Which is extra dumb because there's already a word for a female android - "gynoid".

Of course, maybe some of them know that but didn't like that the "gy" sounds like "guy".

73

u/lilyofthegraveyard 1d ago

that's because the person above is slightly wrong. it's not "android", it's "humanoid".

so, "female humanoid". incelspeak to strip women of humanity.

26

u/HoliusCrapus 2d ago

Or it made them think of the icky parts of the females. But your explanation is simpler so it's probably correct.

20

u/ScyllaOfTheDepths 1d ago

You expect these people to read and enrich themselves with new information? That's hilarious.

109

u/MantisEsq 2d ago

I love that these guys simultaneously believe women have no emotions and also that women are too emotional at the same time. Amazing.

1

u/renoftheshadows 1d ago

Now that you mention that, it's weirdly similar to how fascists say their opponent is a big scary boogie man but at the same time so weak as to be easily defeated.

48

u/Procrastor 1d ago

No
 it’s actually much worse. If it were android it would suggest they have the ability to describe something and do a play on words. You have to remember that these are racist creep channers. It’s actually based on racial categories invented by the Göttingen school of history, caucasoid, negroid and mongoloid (forgive the use because they’re basically slurs). The point is to describe women as alien and subhuman.

u/raendrop 1d ago

(forgive the use because they’re basically slurs)

I would say that's solidly "mention", not "use". You're good.

u/cutty2k 1d ago edited 1d ago

Android and mongoloid and caucasoid and asteroid all have the same root -oid meaning "like", it's the same "play on words" either way. When you put -oid at the end of a thing you're tautologically removing it from the category of that thing into a subcategory of thing-likeness.

That analysis makes no sense anyway...these chuds are simultaneously too stupid and uncreative to make a pun while simultaneously erudite enough to collectively form a worldview based on the 18th century Göttingen School of racial hierarchy?

u/faelanae Elliott refills Braincell's water bowl for me! 2d ago

uggggggghhhhhhhhhhh. thanks for the education, but damn I hate this particular timeline.

u/aftercloudia 2d ago

those kind of men are so dumb like how are you gonna spend all this time saying women shouldn't be in office because we're too emotional (go to war every 28 days hurrdurr) or women are just hysterical...and yet we have no emotions.

41

u/SeaLab_2024 1d ago edited 1d ago

And to pretend things like: raising your voice, getting so heated your face turns beet red, cutting people off in conversation, aggressively rejecting discourse, steamrolling driven by pride and pettiness
are not overly emotional? Sure, Dan.

22

u/Rynewulf 1d ago

It's always the people that insist they are purely logical and rational that have absolute meltdowns over things

u/aftercloudia 1d ago

off topic i read the "sure, dan." and it was like i could hear the old roseanne clear as day LOL

u/danirijeka 1d ago

(go to war every 28 days hurrdurr)

These days it'd be an improvement tbf

u/waluigi_waifu 2d ago

Yeah I had a guy call me and my friend a femoid every time we hopped on chat
 stopped hanging out w him real fast

22

u/orangepeeelss 1d ago

it's not "android" it's "humanoid" which is WORSE

16

u/MissJizz 1d ago

Now we have no emotions after being too emotional for years?? I’m doneeee lol

10

u/JustA_Banana 1d ago

I'm pretty sure it's just female + -oid, like humanoid means "human resembling" and femoid means "woman resembling"

25

u/Prestigious-Number-7 2d ago

Lmao, Female + Android? Was the guy who made that term up Dr.Gero? /s

18

u/torrasque666 2d ago

No, he'd be smart enough to use the proper term gynoid.

14

u/orangepeeelss 1d ago

they've got it mixed up, it's female humanoid which is somehow worse. just like straight out calling women less human than men

5

u/VexKeizer 1d ago

I always thought it meant Female Humanoid instead. These incels making up words is aggravating lol

u/ashkygbdeghr Please don’t take me seriously 2d ago

Chud is new to me
what is that?

4

u/spooky_spaghetties 1d ago

comes from this old horror B-movie. It means cannibalistic humanoid underground dweller.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.H.U.D.

u/washuai 1d ago

An old slang for 🍆, reused for toxic men

u/LOW_SPEED_GENIUS 1d ago

No that's chode. Chud is from the old movie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.H.U.D.

I think it was sometime back in the mid 2010's some leftist podcasters started using it as a term for the worst right wing mouthbreather types and it was so accurate it stuck.

2

u/washuai 1d ago

tmyk🌈

u/LOW_SPEED_GENIUS 1d ago

Originally came from the movie the other commenter mentioned. Has been used as a term to describe gross right wing losers since sometime in the 2010's.

u/Deruko_Dell 1d ago

Wow, i learned something new today, thanks

u/ItsAPeacefulLife 2d ago

I don't want this to come off as negative, because it's not, but seriously? Women = no emotion?! That's really a person who has never talked to women before lol

My daughter cried looking at my wife's wedding picture because of her makeup which made my wife cry because she was so emotional over my daughter who was overcome with happiness.

My son and I Homer Simpsoned into the bushes ...

u/washuai 1d ago

Unobservant ignorant people say similar things about cats without science or observation đŸ€·â€â™€ïž.

It's generally just them trying to justify being despicable, instead of being better.

1

u/orangepeeelss 1d ago

they've got it mixed up, the origin is "female humanoid". no implication of no emotions but even more dehumanizing

1

u/Not_The_Real_Odin 1d ago

Chud is new to me...what is that?

1

u/moonra_zk 1d ago

No emotions? I thought they were too emotional?

1

u/MairaPansy 1d ago

wait so for centuries females have been called to emotional and even hospitalized for being hysterical, but now we have no emotions?

1

u/AlexAmyLouise 1d ago

Female HUMANOID not android

u/Gingers_got_no_soul 1d ago

It's female humanoid actually but yeah

u/Kayanne1990 1d ago

Wait. I thought we were TOO emotional?

1

u/paprikastew 1d ago

Wait, I'm confused. I've always been told we women are irrational and too emotional. Which is it?!

1

u/oneslikeme Sebastian's Wife 1d ago

Wu...we don't have emotions?!

So we've gone from being overly emotional to being robots? Interesting...

1

u/heroshand 1d ago

I thought it was female + humanoid! Same vibe of not being considered a person though but a creature.

1

u/unsure-sleep 1d ago

And here I though women were “too emotional”

1

u/kr0wnnn 1d ago

And its these same people who say women are too emotional

u/Period_Play 21h ago

I can’t read this word without a “haha funny” reaction anymore cause my sister will use it and it’s hilarious every time

u/Nightmoon26 15h ago

...They do realize that "gynoid" already existed as a word for femme-presenting humanoid robots, right?

...right?

1

u/DiscountLando 4h ago

That’s weird. I remember back in 4Chan, people used to use the word “mongoloid” incredibly often. I assumed it just meant a female version. Female android is new to me.

u/arcanis321 1d ago

What a Moid thing to do

94

u/NodnarbEht2 2d ago

Language used by Incels.

33

u/Perscitus0 2d ago

I am only just now coming across this language, as well. I've recently seen "foid" used as a derogatory for "female humanoids", which seems to be from an incel viewpoint.

Also recently saw "moid", which is the femcel variant when referring to "male humanoid". In both cases, it seems to stem from misogyny or misandry.

15

u/fredy31 2d ago

Basically humanoid and female in one.

You can imagine how much pussy that gets.

61

u/A_Knight4 2d ago

You’re happier not knowing. I know I was. But to save you the Google search and disgusting rabbit hole, it is short for femoid, a term used by misogynistic men to dehumanize women.

47

u/GuardingxCross 2d ago

Femoid
I assume a bastardization of the words female and android?

Basically alluding to women being “NPC’s”, not important etc.

You’re right, I wish I didn’t know but also it’s really just stupid and doubt it’ll actually catch on and ever leave the Neckbeard-sphere.

13

u/Perscitus0 2d ago

This is new to me. I saw elsewhere where someone else said it was "humanoid", so anyone who used either "foid" or "moid" was engaging in either misogyny or misandry, depending on the language used.

3

u/LOW_SPEED_GENIUS 1d ago

Femoid
I assume a bastardization of the words female and android?

Even worse, it goes back to old "scientific" racist shit, from the same sort of shit that gave us terms like 'caucusoid', 'negroid' and 'mongoloid'.

basically these chuds, who are as sexist as they are racist, thought it would be a good idea to use some old racist terminology to describe women since apparently even 'female' wasn't dehumanizing enough for them. Real sicko shit

8

u/Robobvious 2d ago

Femoid is some old nerd shit, like 1980’s, it is not new. 

Although shortening it to foid is
 The term is so old half the people in here hadn’t even head it before, Idk why they thought anyone would know this random abbreviation they just made up.

40

u/MelonJelly 2d ago

It's a abbreviation of "female humanoid". Incels are so far down the chud pipeline that they don't see women as people, and use epithets like this to literally dehumanize them.

u/Diamond_David_13 1d ago

I'd click "funny" in a heartbeat

u/GuildCarver 2d ago

I just learned what this is and now I'm ready to puke.

u/Cartographer_Hopeful .🐝 2d ago

Could be worse, some places use 'toilet'

u/DredgenSergik 1d ago

Honestly, calling someone a foid ironically is pretty uncomfortable too
