This definition of woman as "wombman" is widespread but it is more an unfounded rumour than a fact. The definition of woman provided by the Online Etymology Dictionary defines the origin of the word "woman" as coming from old english "wimman", literally, woman-man.

Also, according to the urban dictionary, "wombman" means a female that looks like a man but with no facial hair.

It is necessary to remind ourselves of how words reveal how sexism survives in our societies. In this sense, the origin of the word woman as woman-man indicates how women were conceived in medieval times: it could mean that women are the "possession" of men or that women are men with added feminine features.

It is necessary remember the research of feminist thinkers like Luce Irigaray or Julia Kristeva who have helped us reconsider the ways language subliminally conceal women's identity, reflecting the patriarchal roots of our society.
