A man who thinks he is perfect, big, tough, or any combination of these, but panics at the sight of his own shadow.
"Jonathan, my neighbor, is a closet princess - he acts tough like he's 2Pac, but you come out the bushes on him and he screams like a 4 year old girl and runs away. Yesterday I saw him take out the trash and he looked down on the ground and jumped, dude literally got scared of his own damn shadow."

TAYLOR: I really like Luke...
BRIANA: Well, does Luke like you back?
TAYLOR: Yes, but he won't do anything about it!
BRIANA: Why not? If he likes you, there shouldn't be a problem.
TAYLOR: I'm not a size zero, I'm short and my thighs are too thick... He won't date me because I don't look like all the other girls. But, he still fucks me every now and then.
BRIANA: Damn, you're his closet piece.

The kind of guy who votes Republican solely because he doesn't want to pay for the other party's new tax hike or other such social expense. Usually a high-income earner who lives in a coastal city and will go to great lengths to not reveal his vote to his more liberal friends. Sometimes he'll even build a superficial pro-this or that persona just to fit in with whatever his friends claim to support, some of whom may be just "fitting in" themselves.
"There's no way a guy with a house and a job like that would support the new tax bill, he's probably just a closeted Republican."
"I don't know about you but that little speech of his sounded so forced and generic, like something a closet Republican would say just to impress people..."

A person who pretends to like the same bands & artists that your friends like just to get accepted into your crowd & mingle with you, but when they are alone, they listen only to their old shameful bullshit music in the closet to avoid embarrassment.
"Cornelius is a Closet Bandit! He pretended to like our favorite bands & dress up cool just to hang with us. He just pretends to like Marilyn Manson. This whole time, he's been flailing his arms and dancing to Peyton Parrish in the closet!"
