==Definition of Sow==
A distasteful woman is called a Sow or 母豬教 or breeder female hog in these BBS communities. The use of this phrase to criticize a promiscuous women dates back to at least Song Dynasty China.https://pttpedia.fandom.com/zh/wiki/%E6%AF%8D%E8%B1%AC%E6%95%99
The typical behavior of the sow is apparently largely defined by promiscuity in her younger years, and then looking for a 'recycler' or betabux when she is ready to 'settle down'. Sows also engage in other stereotypically foidy behaviors, like feminist utterances, using their life on tutorial mode to financially exploit men, by getting men to pay for their extravagant dining, holidays etc., and using men as free transportation providers https://disp.cc/b/780-9CXC etc.
The term is also(somewhat controversially in the community https://disp.cc/b/780-9CXC) used to refer to old women, ugly women, fat women, and (sometimes) women who date foreigners.

==Criticism==
Sow Believers have been broadbrushed and criticised by feminists, especially womany.net in their home country, in many of the same ways incels in the West have. They were accused of misogyny, but since their main ideology was NAWALT (Not All Women Are Like That) as they claimed that they only hate the "Sows", not all women; such claims were incorrect.
==Taiwanese Femcels==
There also exist females who identify as Sow Believers, in a manner somewhat analogous to femcels. https://pttpedia.fandom.com/zh/wiki/%E6%AF%8D%E8%B1%AC%E6%95%99
==Origin==
A popular Taiwanese BBSer named Obov was interacting with a popular female Taiwanese BBSer who would complain in a daily public diary that she was suffering from depression because she could not find a doctor to have a relationship with. Obov responded to her by saying, "Sow sow, crying at night".https://www.rumtoast.com/3267 This angered the female villagers who then tried to ban him from the BBS boards. Because other Taiwanese netizens found Obovs posts funny, Obovs popularity grew fast, and his posting were referred to as sow teaching", with Obov as the "sow teacher".
