fuckboys
Shallow romantic manipulators
Fuckboys is the plural of fuckboy, a man who pursues casual sex while feigning romantic interest, then disappears.
The term implies manipulative behavior, emotional unavailability, and treating partners as disposable: She's done dating fuckboys who ghost after two weeks.
The label suggests immaturity and selfishness rather than honest interest in casual relationships.
