cannot find Bishumen but did find the following:
Bishōnen (美少年, Bishōnen? also transliterated bishounen (help·info)), is a Japanese term literally meaning "beautiful youth." It describes an aesthetic widely shared in Asia—a young man whose beauty (and sexual appeal) transcends the boundary of sex. Recently, it has shown strongest manifestation in Japanese and Korean pop culture, but it has roots in ancient Japanese literature, the homosocial and homoerotic ideals of the medieval Chinese imperial court and intellectuals, and Indian aesthetic concepts carried over from Hinduism, imported with Buddhism from China, and Korea.

Ya mean a Bishi? Or, the non-slang term, a Bishounen? Anyway, a Bishi is basically a "Pretty Boy". It's a japanese term. It's the same thing with Bishojou, which means "Pretty Girl"
