Soft boy

A type of cancel culture who founds out their favorite people's old news containing slurs and edgy humors, and then straight up cancelling them for what they did before, until they hold themselves accountable. Most notably Tyler, The Creator, Korn, Lil Darkie, Joji and so on, despite they don't care about being cancelled, stans have caused this "drama" because of this.

Other than the word "soft boy" described as cute chibi aesthetic, the word is circulating their meaning amongst users.
"I can't believe so many TikTok stans are going to cancel my favorite band that they don't care."
"Yeah, this cancel culture shit is just soft boys. It is best to block them and move on."

Softboi

An 'effeminate' cis man who weaponizes his (pose of) emotional intelligence and pseudo-intellectualism in order to lure women into bed (or, failing that, into sending nude photographs). He presents his extreme horny-ness as a romantic sensibility. If his attempt at seduction proves a failure, the softboi may become defensive and even abusive, displaying an incel-like entitlement to sex.

Hobbies include: writing terrible poetry, pretending to read Nietzche, listening to The Smiths, wearing chipped black nail varnish as though its a radical statement, smoking rollies, gas-lighting, wanting a medal for calling himself a 'feminist' while actually being a raging misogynist, proclaiming himself a sex-god while repeatedly failing to locate the clitoris, starting sentences with phrases such as 'you probably have't heard of insert incredibly well-known musician/writer/director'.
'He literally said to me 'I'm not like other guys' - total Softboi'
'Oh god... I think I went on a tinder date with that Softboi. He asked me if I'd heard of Tarantino.'

3. Not built for hardship – Someone who wouldn’t handle a tough situation well.
