Android means robot man. A robot girl is a gynoid. The gender neutral term for a robot human is an anthroid.
Don’t believe the furries who say anthroid means a robot anthromopomorphic animal. They failed etymology class. A robot anthromopomorphic animal is called an anthropomorphoid. By the way, technically humans are a kind of anthromopomorphic animal. Yummy food for thinking.
Anthropomorphic is only applied to non-humans by definition. So no, we’re not anthropomorphic animals.
Also, android comes from “andros” meaning man, yes, but popular use has made it into a gender neutral term. Nobody is out there using the term “gynoid”.
Drag has met some robotgirls who called themselves gynoids. Drag thinks robotgirls should get to decide what the word for robotgirls is. Most just like being called robotgirls but gynoid is more popular than android in the communities drag has joined.
They’re welcome to call themselves gynoids, I’m just saying that android is a correct term for anthropomorphic robots in general, due to popular usage.
Drag thinks members of a minority get to decide what the correct term for their group is. Drag doesn’t think it matters what humans think the name should be.
