==Origin of the term, "Femoid"== | ==Origin of the term, "Femoid"== | ||
Women were upset that [[Asperger's Syndrome|autists]] were being autists (not new) and complained incels were using the scientific term 'female' instead of 'woman' in incel forums. In response to the complaint being dumb, as you can't always substitute 'woman' for 'female', many incels stopped using the word 'female'. And instead of chosing a more neutral word they chose a more dehumanizing term, 'femoid', to make fun of women hating the word 'female' and to make fun of their own autism. | Women were upset that [[Asperger's Syndrome|autists]] were being autists (not new) and complained that incels were using the scientific term 'female' instead of 'woman' in incel forums.
