gynoid
A gynoid is anything that resembles or pertains to the female human form. The term has more recently been applied to a humanoid robot designed to look like a human female. Though the term ''android'' refers to robotic humanoids regardless of apparent gender, the Greek prefix "andr-" refers to ''man'' in the masculine gendered sense.〔Liddell and Scott: Greek Lexicon.〕 Because of this prefix, many read ''Android'' as referring to male-styled robots.〔〔〔〔〔
The name is also used in American English medical terminology as a shortening of the term ''gynecoid'' (gynaecoid in British English).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.merriam-webster.com/medical/gynoid )〕
==Name==
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 portmanteau fembot (female robot) was popularized by the television series ''The Bionic Woman'' in the episode "Kill Oscar" (1976) Austin Powers films,〔 among others. Robotess is the oldest female-specific term, originating in 1921 from the same source as robot.
