fuck zone en · NOUN
Etymology
From fuck + zone, by analogy with friend zone.
Meanings
-
(slang, vulgar) The situation where one is treated as a friend but only because of a perceived potential as a romantic partner or sex partner without any romantic attachment.
If the friend zone is painful, it seems clear that the fuck zone is at least as bad, leaving women feeling used, manipulated and deceived.
