Adjective: A descriptive term to be used in describing something as pertaining to having qualities of a dude. However, as opposed to manly, the purpose of dudely is to be used offensively as a descriptive term for a female who is particularly fat or ugly and has qualities to her looks that might make one so confused as to think she was in fact a dude.
"Aww fuck, it's Olga... She's so dudely. I throw up in my mouth everytime I see her. It's like a butterface, except the rest of her is awful, too!"
