About

Fuckboy and Fuccboi are pejoratives referring to men who are perceived as oversexed or disrespectful toward women. On Tumblr, the term has also spawned a derivative phrase “en garde (English: on your guard), fuckboy," which is often accompanied with images of skeletons in a similar vein to 2Spooky.

Origin

On December 29th, 2004, Urban Dictionary[1] user bretb submited an entry for the term "fuckboy," defining it as "a person who is a weak ass pussy."
