What's Your Industry Definition Of A
"Neanderthal"?

A “Neanderthal” is an insult that implies they’re backward, primitive, ignorant, or socially unevolved, but its exact meaning depends on the context and tone of the conversation. It draws from the stereotype of actual Neanderthals (our extinct human cousins) being “less evolved” or “less intelligent”

General Insult (Low Intelligence / Outdated Thinking)
  • Meaning: The person is “stuck in the past,” close-minded, or lacking basic awareness
Social Etiquette / Relationship Context
  • Meaning: Someone who lacks manners, emotional intelligence, or modern social awareness
Gender & Toxic Masculinity Context
  • On social media, “Neanderthal” is often used to mock hyper-masculine behavior or “caveman logic,” especially when men act possessive, aggressive, or resistant to progressive gender norms
Lately, the term is trending more on social media when mocking outdated gender roles, anti-science attitudes, or socially unaware takes. It overlaps with terms like:

  • “Caveman” → primitive and unrefined
  • “Boomer” → out of touch with modern culture
  • “NPC” → lacks critical thinking“
“I can’t believe that Neanderthal is still walking around with a current references”
“Wow, that’s some Neanderthal-level thinking right there”
“Only a Neanderthal would think that kind of behavior is acceptable”
A Neanderthal in this industry to me is those that overpay providers, guys who desire Cim , guys who cheat on their wives or SO doing this without her blessing and allowing her to get some young penis as well and lastly those that overstay their welcome becoming mean and bitter. Male and female alike. . Especially worse with females who need this to put food on the table yet spend their time in nonsense. So that’s my answer. Such a simple business. People over complicate it then of course there are always outright liars

Nowadays "Neanderthal" also includes social board trolls. They exsist on every board, including this one. The most entertaining of which have multiple handles.
