When you look up the word Douche it is defined as : a device used to introduce a stream of water into the body for medical or hygienic reasons, or the stream of water itself.
Douchebag, or simply douche, is considered to be a pejorative term. The slang usage of the term dates back to the 1960's. The term refers to a person with a variety of negative qualities, specifically arrogance and engaging in obnoxioius and/or irritating actions without malicious intent. (I found this exciting information on Wikipedia.)
For those of you who know me personally, I use this term often. After doing much research about this word... I was thrilled to learn that 85% of the time I use it correctly.
Thank you Wikipedia!
