The term "chira" (derived from the greek word "Kiria") can also be used in a similar fashion for the female sex.
Also worth mentioning is that someone who is not necessarily a chiras themselves, can still perform chiras acts. A chiras act can be an act of selflessness, caring and/or looking out for others.

Chiralism 

The act or practice of keeping one in suspense, especially with erotic undertones.

A stripper would be a “chiralist”, for example. The Japanese “panty shot” is probably the best example of why this term comes to us from the land of the rising sun. The word itself, though, is of unknown origin. It appears in the song D-City Rock by Teddyloid from the Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt soundtrack.

The word 'tease' is also similar to chiralism, but does not fully encompass the idea; chiralism is not always intentional.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
