wide stance Republican 

A closeted gay Republican who rages against LGBT rights in public but gets their same-sex freak on in private. Named after Senator Larry Craig's defense of his solicitation bust, i.e. that he has "a wide stance when going to the bathroom."

Wide Stance 

A euphemism for a homosexual, especially one who is closeted.

This is coined from the transparent defense of Senator Larry Craig (R-Idaho), to charges of disorderly conduct, stemming from his apparent solicitation of an undercover officer, underneath the partition of a restroom stall.

Prior to pleading guilty, Sen. Craig attempted to explain his behavior by claiming that his shoe touched the officer's underneath the partition because he had a "wide stance", when going to the bathroom.
Genevieve is really crushing hard on the varsity QB. Someone should tell her that the dude has a wide stance.

i have a wide stance 

Bullet-proof excuse for soliciting sex from the man in the next cubicle in the men's room. Commonly used in concert with the even more convincing "I'm not gay."
Man 1: "Why did you attempt to grab my penis?"
Man 2: "I have a wide stance."

Man 1: "Why are you wearing pantyhoses and high heels?"
Man 2: "I have a wide stance."

Man 1: "Why are you such an asshole?"

tight pants wide stance 

A self explanatory term describing a type of modern snowboarder who wears tight pants and positions their bindings in an extra wide position on the board. They usually put a strong emphasis on jibbing and urban snowboarding, and prefer to ride such hip companies as capita, forecast, dinosaurs will die, santa cruz, rome, and especially holden.
That snowboarder just jumped on the tight pants wide stance bandwagon.

Wide Stance 

The laughable explanation you give an arresting undercover officer with whom you tried to initiate sexual activity by reaching with YOUR FOOT into HIS STALL and MAKING DIRECT CONTACT with HIS FOOT.
Senator Larry Craig didn't intend to initiate stall sex, he simply has a WIDE STANCE.

Unusually Wide Stance 

The excuse a man uses to dissuade others from thinking he is guilty of soliciting gay sex in an airport bathroom, whereby he "accidentally" placed his foot on the foot of the patron in the next stall. Predominantly seen in elected officials.
Senator Larry Craig: "I am not gay, I have never been gay, I did not approach an undercover officer in the airport and solicit gay sex. I simply have an unusually wide stance"
