According to an old Valentine's Day edition of the Boston Globe, it is a phrase used by cockgobblers (i.e.: Greg Fiore) when referring to their life partners (i.e: Pete DeVincent). The reference comes from the old Johnny Quest cartoon, in which Johnny has a father, Dr. Quest, but no mother... only Race Bannon. Race seemed quite happy to take care of Johnny and run errands for the good Doctor, the way a dedicated wife should.

Named after the ace of spades, the Race of Spades is said to be drawn anytime a minority uses it to defuse a majority race's argument against them, automatically making them defensive. However, the Race of Spades doesn't always work. Blacks can't use the Race of Spades on Asians, since Asians don't oppress them like as whites, and most importantly: Asians are a more minor minority in the US than them.

Race-queer is intended as a humanizing alternative, similar to the idea of gender queer, based on the idea that race, like gender is a socially constructed concept. It is intended to replace dehumanizing terms like "banana", "oreo" "Uh-oh Oreo", "Coconut" etc. and to indicate a spectrum of racial identity and affinity based on indivdual culture, mixed family membership, and other factors that cause individuals to not fully identify as the race that outside observers would categorize them with or identify for them.
