Read more about Fembot at: Wikipedia Official Site: ABC television A gynoid (from Greek γυνη, gynē – woman) is anything which resembles a woman. The term has been applied to a humanoid robot designed to look like a human female; it has been derived from the word android in response to its linguistically masculine lexical element andro-, which is perceived as implying a male-styled robot according to some cultural readings. Gynoid has not gained popularity, however, with the term android being used almost universally to refer to robotic humanoids regardless of apparent gender. The term gynoid was used by Gwyneth Jones in her 1985 novel Divine Endurance to describe a robot slave character in a futuristic China, that is judged by her beauty. The tongue-in-cheek portmanteau fembot (female robot) has greater recognition as a result of Austin Powers films. CBUB Match Record:
