A person who worships women or treats women with excessive reverence and adoration.
From Greek gynē (woman) + -latres (worshipper), using the same root that appears in 'idolater' to describe someone devoted to female worship.
This word reveals how some historical movements, particularly in courtly love traditions and certain spiritual practices, elevated women to divine status—turning the typical male gaze into religious devotion!
One who worships women; term emerged in 19th-century discourse often pejoratively to mock those advocating female dignity or equality.
Avoid—laden with mockery. Use 'advocate for women's equality' or 'feminist' instead.
