[/quote] I think it's a polite way to be sarcastic about the word 'girlfriend', whether you're bugging someone or referring to it yourself.

XIX Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Someon'e's going to have to esplain this one to me. I'm somewhat unfamiliar with the term "ladyfriend." I'm sort of oblivious to people actually using it in real life--not that they never do, just that I've never noticed it and I've never said it myself. Why the backlash against the term?

tinytherese Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 [color="#800080"]My friend didn't mean anything sexual by the term "manfriend." She just thought that she could call her guy friends that. She didn't want anybody to think that "my friend who is a boy" means "boyfriend."[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
