    It stands for female humanoid and is exactly as dehumanizing as it sounds

    How is that "dehumanizing" when human is literally in the explanation. Had it been "female apeoid" I'd have agreed, but humanoid... So "moid" for male humanoid is "dehumanizing" too?

    "A humanoid is a non-human entity with human form or characteristics." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanoid

    A humanoid is by definition not human, hence calling a human a humanoid is dehumanizing.

    I think it's supposed to be some kind of derogatory label for women, but is really just an identifier that the person using it is a worthless being whose opinion is as relevant as a gnats thoughts on the economy.
