'''Hueco''', also spelled '''Weko''', '''Wekereke''' and '''Huequereque,''' is a reclaimed slur used against [[Achillean|men-loving men]], [[transfeminine]] and [[AMAB]] [[Gender Non-Conforming|gender non-conforming]] people in Guatemala,<ref>[https://dle.rae.es/hueco Definition]</ref> Chile<ref>[https://diccionariochileno.cl/term/hueco Chilean dictionary entry]</ref> and possibly other Hispanic countries. The feminine equivalent, '''Hueca''', may also be used against [[sapphic]] women and [[transmasculine]] people. However, it is generally used to insult women as a whole.
==
The term "hueco" literally translates as "empty, shallow, hollow, or superficial"<ref>[https://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=hueco English translation]</ref> among other terms that indicate a lack of substance. This comes from the homophobic stereotype that queer men are usually feminine, and the misogynistic belief that femininity indicates no intelligence or dept within a person.
== History ==
It is unclear when exactly the word ''hueco'' became synonymous with [[achillean]], however it's been present on the internet since at least 2014. [https://diccionariochileno.cl/term/hueco#:~:text=trolo-,Enviado%20por%20mad%20max%207%20years%20ago.,-votos%2016 <nowiki>[4]</nowiki>]
