ladyfriends
Women one dates
Ladyfriends is an informal plural noun for women with whom one has a friendly or romantic relationship.
The term can be deliberately vague, covering anything from platonic companions to girlfriends or casual lovers.
It often appears when someone wants to reference female acquaintances without specifying the exact nature of the relationship.
He's always surrounded by ladyfriends at parties.
The singular ladyfriend similarly leaves the relationship status ambiguous.
