soy boy

Unmasculine modern man

Soy boy is a derogatory term for a man perceived as weak, effeminate, or lacking traditional masculinity.

The insult draws on discredited claims that soy consumption raises estrogen levels in men.

It's used primarily in online spaces to mock men seen as overly sensitive, politically progressive, or physically unimposing: Look at this soy boy with his man bun and latte.
