A word seldom uttered by someone who understands it. Usually employed to smear a fact as invalid because the speaker is a neurotic undergraduate with a Yoko Ono tattoo.

Properly understood, a social construct is a thing that emerges as a result of social interaction. For instance, the price of gold is a social construct--it emerges from the market for gold as an approximation of how society presently values gold in relation to another asset, usually currency.

Social constructs are no less "real" than the price of gold is "real." It's not as real as gold itself, but it's pretty damn real.

It's not the law of the land, but the law of the sky.

Someone who fakes polio until there's something better to do.

Also, a character from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory who was bed-ridden until his grandson won a trip to a slave-run chocolate underworld.

A justification to yourself for a bad decision.

When you make a delivery order for Chinese food and then you tell your man to fuck you. So he does, in the ass, on the living-room coffee table. Just as he’s balls-deep, the Uber Eats guy knocks on the door.

Facial features typical of gay men.

Gayface is a critical part of gaydar and is so real that it can be used by AI to identify a man's sexual orientation with over 90% accuracy. Straight people are also able to perceive gayface, but not as well as gay people or robots do.

Gayface is about more than how gay men groom themselves. While gay men do tend to have less facial hair and clearer skin than straight men, gays also have sharper jawlines, among other things.

An academic field created out of thin air and built on a foundation of bullshit. It recruits unsocialized, lesbian undergraduates and teaches them the proper technique for blaming all of their real and imaginary problems on a hypothetical, ancient, patriarchal conspiracy.
