Wikipedia Wiktionary dictionary logo

  • A boy is a young male human, as contrasted to its female counterpart, girl, or an adult male, a man. The term "boy" is primarily used to indicate biological sex distinctions, cultural gender role distinctions or both. The latter most commonly applies to adult men, either considered in some way immature or inferior, in a position associated with aspects of boyhood, or even without such boyish connotation as age-indiscriminate synonym.
