A rude and derogatory slang term, popularized in North American teen comedy culture of the late 1980s and 1990s, used to insult a woman regarded as obnoxious, promiscuous, or unpleasant. The word blends 'hose' (a crude sexual reference) with 'beast' (implying ugliness or nastiness). It's crude, sexist, and firmly rooted in the Wayne's World / Bill and Ted era of slang. Today it reads as a period artifact more than a live insult.

He called his ex a hosebeast in front of everyone at the party, which just made him look worse.
Origin: Popularized by the 1992 film Wayne's World, though the term may predate it in North American teen slang. Editorial expansion authored on Slangora (model-assisted, hedged).
