A derogatory term used by blacks for white males. The idea being that they don't know how to use their peckers. And that their peckers have as much feeling as a piece of wood. With a connotation that their minds aren't very sensitive either.

Get the peckerwood mug.Peckerwood derived from the blacks forcing the whites into orally pleasuring them (because they looked like a the woodpecker pecking wood while thrusting another man's "wood" down their throat) in prison during a time period of history when the white population in prison was very few and far between. The term is now IGNORANTLY worn proudly by a large number of white Americans in prison.

Get the Peckerwood mug.derogatory term for a white male, primarily used by african americans
this term came about in part because of the stereotype that African American males have bigger peckers than white males and know how to use them: they can have slow sex with their women because of the size of their peckers and their mad skills. on the other hand, white males stereotypically have smaller peckers and thus must thrust very fast like a wood pecker pecking wood in order to please their women with said peckers. therefore white males are peckerwoods also an inversion of the word "woodpecker."

Get the peckerwood mug.The word peckerwood, originally used to refer to white prisoners generally, began to develop a more specific association with members of racist prison gangs and cliques, as well as their associates and hangers-on. This association is strongest in California and Texas, and fairly strong across the West and South in general, but less common in the Midwest and Northeast. In California, the term spread from the prison to the streets in the form of so-called peckerwood gangs, white gangs that mix elements of street gang, prison gang, and racist skinhead gang. Their white supremacy is more often crude than sophisticated and they have a high association with traditional criminal activity, such as drugs. They tend to organize geographically, such as San Fernando Valley Peckerwoods, Inland Empire Peckerwoods, High Desert Peckerwoods, etc.

Get the Peckerwood mug.A peckerwood is a white Carlos and or a rural white southerner, usually poor, undereducated or otherwise ignorant and bigoted, the term gained popularity in the deep south during the early twentieth century and was meant to be derogatory. It is a reversal of the name of the red bellied woodpecker which had a patch of red on the back of it’s head and neck, therefore a peckerwood is a redneck, terms that describe similar groups of people are trailer trash or white trash but neither of those have the same effect or ring to them as peckerwood does.
