While the components 'fem' and 'bot' are clear, the slang and often offensive meaning of a woman appearing mechanical or unemotional is not directly derivable from the parts.

Etymology

A helpful way to remember fembot is that it combines fem- ('female') and bot ('robot'). As slang it describes a woman who seems 'mechanical' or 'without real feeling', and this use can be rude.
