Filipino slang for a man who actively pursues, flirts with, and courts multiple women — somewhere between a charmer and a player. A chick boy isn't necessarily malicious; in Filipino culture, the term can be used with grudging admiration for someone who has game and knows it. But it's also a warning label: if your friend is labeled a chick boy, you know he's unlikely to commit anytime soon. The phrase blends English loanwords in the distinctly Filipino style of code-switching.
All the girls in the office knew he was a chick boy the moment he walked in on his first day with that smile.
