And many a poor man that has roved,
Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.

It can mean homosexual male, but can also simply mean effeminate. Always intended as a term of derision, it's usually used to try and stir up a fight.dubhlinn wrote:Nancyboy is a crude slang term for a homosexual male.satyricon234 wrote:What's a Nancyboy?

It means "currently unemployed" (sound it out) sez Brassblower.
Brass,
I managed to figure that bit out by myself it was the overall point that I have a problem with i.e. what is the point of this thread.

If i got it right, "toasty" is trying to communicate to us that he is a rude teenager.

Actually, there was a thread similar to this on one of the forums the other morning early, to which I responded. When I got home that evening the thread had magically disappeared.
It would seem that "toasty" is insisting that we all get started on the topic of nancyboys, which he/she either finds amusing, or repulsive, whatever.
How boring.
I'm off to practice.
Don't get your panties in a bunch, toasty.
