The meaning of this title is often debated and described incorrectly. The true title is 'break-boy.' And it's true meaning is 'one that breaks.' Breakin' is an old street term to describe the action of getting on someone's case (e.g. My mom's is breakin' on me, the postman reached his breaking point, and snapped). The hip hop dancers of the mid to late 70s just used the exaggeration of this term to their dancing. The source of this information would be none other than DJ Kool Herc from the movie "The Freshest Kids."

A very gay term to describe a person with little or no taste in music or dance.

Basically, a b-boy is a faker left over from an outmoded 80s dancing fad that lasted for 5 minutes. (much less than the usual 15 minutes of fame)
Delmar was a superb b-boy and liked to hang out with his homie friend named "Milhouse" who had coke-bottle glasses.
