Downter

A downter is an individual who actively or passively hinders progress, growth, or positive change within a group or community. Unlike a senter, who inspires and motivates others, a downter may discourage innovation, foster negativity, or resist efforts that push for improvement. Their presence can create stagnation, limit potential, and prevent collective development.

"Her constant resistance to new ideas made her a downter within the team, slowing the pace of innovation and demotivating others."

fixer-downer

Real estate term referring to a house so dilapidated that even fixing it UP wouldn't make it attractive.

Amelia: "I'm sending you a listing of a fixer-upper. It needs a lot of work but the price is good and so is the location."
Bob (upon receiving the listing): "You've gotta be kidding me, Amelia. Looks more like a fixer-downer to me. Take another gander."

Boner downer

A boner downer is a term which is used to express not only the frustration of being turned off, but also the actuality of losing a boner. A boner downer may occur when something someone says turns your boner or any potential boner limp instantly.

Guy 1: Man you should have been in the child development studies class yesterday! There was this smokin' hot babe in tight yoga pants and you could see right through them!

Guy 2: Shit I can't believe I missed that, I slept through my alarm.

Guy 1: Yeah she was so hot...but then the speaker started talking about teen pregnancy and it was a total boner downer!
