1. womanish

   Womanish refers to characteristics that are traditionally or stereotypically associated with women or femininity. It is often used in a derogatory manner to suggest that these traits are appearing in an inappropriate or unmanly context, like a man or boy displaying such traits. However, it can also be used more neutrally just to refer to something being like a woman or feminine.
