Morphology
douchery = douche (semi-transparent) = douche + ery
Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ery' to the slang noun 'douche' to denote the quality or behavior, but the slang status and literal original sense may reduce immediate recognizability.
Etymology
Douchery comes from the slang douche, which originally was a French word for 'to wash'. Adding -ery turns it into the kind of rude, arrogant behaviour someone shows when they act like a 'douche', so douchery means that bad behaviour.
