    But by the later twentieth century the male version [of "bimbo"] had all but vanished, thanks largely to a number of high-profile scandals involving beautiful young women and older buissnessmen (which led to the Wall Street Journal famosly dubbing 1987 'The Year of the Bimbo'). In fact, by the late 1980s the word had become so exclusively female that a male equivalent had to be reinvented — the earliest record the himbo dates from 1988.
