"Bimbo" is an English slang term that appeared in the early 20th century, originally from Italian bambino, meaning "little boy," and later applied to men considered foolish or brutish. By the 1920s–1930s in the U.S., the term shifted to refer to women, particularly attractive ones perceived as unintelligent or superficial. It is used in informal, often critical or mocking contexts to describe a woman judged by appearance rather than ability. The term is derogatory and sexist, objectifying women, and can be offensive depending on context, though it is sometimes used humorously or ironically in media.
