Trap

The term “The Trap” aka The Ghetto aka The Hood had to have been first used by some plumber. A trap is a uniquely shaped pipe used under most household sinks that retains a small amount of water, which creates a seal that keeps the foul smelling sewage gas from the drain pipe from coming back out into open space. If you think about it, we use the term “The Trap” to refer to the hood, where crime is rampant and a place where society wants to keep the people living there from coming out into the suburbs. So I personally think it is strange that rappers glorify the trap because it is a governmental system that is put in place to repress the people living in poverty even further from better living standards and opportunities.

The hood is like a trap pipe.

Pseudo-trap

A male character in anime that looks like a girl, but is not intended by the writers to be a trap character.

This typically occurs when a male character is designed to be adrogenous with signature girl eyelashes. If you already know they are a guy, it can often be hard to tell how others thought they were a girl, but this is not always the case.

Dennis: “I can’t believe Kyousuke from Mieruko-chan was a pseudo-trap!”
Albert: “Yeah, he fooled me too, just like Miki from I Can’t Understand What My Husband Is Saying!”
