Derived from "fuck all" meaning absolutely nothing, i.e. 'fuck-all-ogy'. A pejorative combination used in or of academia, especially sociology studies. Exemplified by the creation or synthesizing of theory or methodological frameworks, e.g. citing pretentious complex language to explain simple social phenomena in order to seem legitimate. Not to be confused with the science of sex (of “fucking” as it were). For example, a doctor of fuckology meaning "a doctorate in absolutely nothing of any value". The word later made its way into porn industry via the title by either a secondary meaning or misappropriation; 'Babyface and the Fuckologist'. The word fuckology seems to have come about because of a sense of inadequacy in the arts and social sciences towards "real" sciences.
