Egirl/Eboy
Gen Z SlangDefinition
An internet-centric subculture and aesthetic: young people who cultivate a highly online, stylized persona and fashion blending emo/goth/anime influences (“E” for electronic); egirl is the feminine-coded term, eboy the masculine, sometimes used pejoratively.
Examples
"She went full egirl for her stream—winged eyeliner, dyed streaks, a choker, and an anime-goth outfit that screams online chic."
"He’s such an eboy these days, with painted nails, chain necklaces, and moody TikTok selfies under soft lighting."
"Don’t dismiss her as “just an egirl”; it’s a deliberate, highly online aesthetic, not a dig at how much time she spends on the internet."
