marble ceiling

Discriminatory barrier keeping a certain class of people out of an upper echelon of American government. Distinguished from a glass ceiling because not only is this class prevented from rising to the next level, they cannot even see what is going on up there.

Coined by incoming Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.
"When my colleagues elect me as speaker on January 4, we will not just break through a glass ceiling, we will break through a marble ceiling." - Nancy Pelosi, Jan. 3, 2007.

Guy Cecil

1. a character from Tales of the abyss who is so gynophobic he can't even touch them, and wears ridiculously tight pants, and yet is not gay.

2. someone who is "not gay" but everyone else knows that he is.
1. Uh oh, it looks like Guy Cecil is here, better hide the girls before he freaks the fuck out.

2. I'll support him whatever lifestyle he chooses to lead, but I wish he'd stop being such a Guy Cecil and just admit he's gay.
