[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 2900176, member: 7966"] Nope ... seems like it's used in many ways ... I stick with the traditional usage of the word. [I] :censored: is a derogatory slang term for a weak, effeminate, or inadequate man. [I]:censored:[/I] is shortened from [I]cuckold[/I], a term that has been belittling the “husband of an unfaithful wife” since the 1200s. The word [I]cuckold[/I] derives from a French word for the cuckoo bird.
