"Chickenhawk" is a slang term that appeared in the late 20th century, primarily in the United States, to describe an older man who pursues sexual relationships with underage boys. The word combines "chicken," a slang term for a young boy or youth, with "hawk," implying predatory behavior, creating a metaphor for someone preying on children. It is used in informal, journalistic, and activist contexts to call out pedophilic behavior. The term is highly derogatory and criminally serious, never neutral, and always meant to accuse or condemn.
