Etymology
In summary
Borrowed from German Dragoner. The pejorative sense might be a reference to Aal de Dragonder, a woman who lived in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and dressed as a dragoon, though this sense only originated well after her death. Otherwise it could be a similar development as the meaning “large ugly woman” of draak.
