Dogwalker

Also "dog walker". A homosexual male, usually (but not always) rather effeminate. So called because of the greater-than-average percentage of gay males in the pet-care and pet-grooming industry, and the fairly common practice among gays as well as straights of walking dogs at the park or other public place as a way of meeting people.

"Man, check out those two guys over there with the pink poodles. What a couple of dogwalkers!"

"That sissy works for my veterinarian. The job suits him perfectly-- he's a real dogwalker."

Childfree co-worker: "Hey, can you stay over for a few extra minutes tonight to help with cleanup?"

Breeder co-worker: "No, I have to leave early again to pick my baybee up from the sitter. Oh, and my sitter can't watch the baybee tomorrow so I won't be in. I'll need you to do the ordering for me, if you would."

Childfree: "Man, I'm doing a lot of extra work on account of you and that golden larva of yours..."
