I don't know, but in Spanish, there are numerous ways to name men and women. And trends change year to year, so the slang to call each of them changes too... so it might just be a cultural or society issue. But well, I'm not in contact much with "common" people since I stopped using proprietary and enterprise software, so I only know about several terms from relatives and videos, but I can ensure that there is several of them. It might also be that Spanish is spoken in a lot of countries, which, I guess, might be the reason for this rich term variety.
Sounds like this topic is probably just a thing for English speakers, then.
Can confirm, a ton of different ones. For both men and women.
