(noun; informal) An intentionally cisheterophobic term often used in the queer community. Particularly refers to cis heterosexual men.
Sociopolitical & historical context:
1. Sounds like the F** or F***** slur, but can feel empowering when used by a queer person towards a straight (as a plank) cis man.
2. Also refers back to the historical and current context of misogynistic men calling femmes of all kinds “hags”.
3. The word “yag” sounds similar to “drag” (as in “what a drag”), which resembles the effects that yags have on the general public.
Summary:
In these ways, Yag is a term that can be used to describe those insufferable cis-straight men. The worst you could think of or that could come to mind.
These “Yags” will stop at nothing to express their hateful homophobia/transphobia when referring to the queer community (whether in public or behind closed doors i.e. “locker-room chat”), and therefore, is used most often in the context of queer people reclaiming their dignity.
“Yag” also has the benefit of being a term that would likely confuse these types of men. Therefore, it perhaps a less risky word to use to describe this particular breed of man, with potentially less risk of harmful repercussions (i.e., risk of a violent and/or aggressive retaliation).

Omg, what a fucking yag.
I bet you’d have to vigorously wash your hands if you touched such an absolute yag’s hair like his, to remove the sticky hair gel used in absolute excess.
I am so sick of yags wearing blue suit jackets undone with a loose (scoop or V, to show off their chest hair of course) neck white T-shirt underneath (probably stained) when taking their girlfriends to Nobu.
