   解释:


  An offensive, derogatory word for a gay man, or a male homosexual 这个词除了水果的意思,在口语中还有男同性恋者的意思,是一个有点冒犯行和贬低意味的词语;
  来源:
  The origin is unknown, but I think it's just supposed to imply the weakness by contrast with "manly 1" meat-and-potatoes, beefy metaphors 2.关于这个词组的来源查了很多资料,都不是很确定。但是猜想之所以用fruit来指代gay,可能是比起其他的食物,比如肉类等,水果会显得有些软弱。当然只是猜想。这个词有时候也可以和fruitcake互换来指代gay。
  使用建议
  This word is offensive to most gay men, so you're advised not to use it. 这个词对于很多的同性恋朋友都很有冒犯性,建议不去使用。If you want to use an informal word to refer to a male homosexual, use the word "gay"," gay man" or "gay guy" instead. 可以使用另外一些词,比如说gay,gay man 或者gay guy.
  举例:
  王小二对什么事情都比较感兴趣,昨天坐地铁时盯着一群着装怪异的小男孩看了好久,结果被那个小孩误认为是gay,
  He was on the subway when some teenage boys sat near him, and one of them said, "Why you lookin' at us? You some sort of fruit, are ya?"

adj.有男子气概的;adv.男子般地,果断地
  • The boy walked with a confident manly stride.这男孩以自信的男人步伐行走。
  • He set himself manly tasks and expected others to follow his example.他给自己定下了男子汉的任务,并希望别人效之。
隐喻( metaphor的名词复数 )
  • I can only represent it to you by metaphors. 我只能用隐喻来向你描述它。
  • Thus, She's an angel and He's a lion in battle are metaphors. 因此她是天使,他是雄狮都是比喻说法。
