Phrase used after one inadvertently says something that sounds gay. Said to show that you aren't gay after saying something that sounded gay.

A full contraction of 'shall not', much better than shalln't and easier to vocalize. A word unto itself, it needs no ' between the n & t as text. (This is similar to dropping the extra n, from: can not, into its contraction: can't, or the possesive form of: it, which is not the contraction of: it is.) Some use may even imply can not, can't, will not or won't.

You have seen them many times. They generally come in demin. Sometimes with mediocre wanna be Ed Hardy designs. Or the likes of something ripped off an Affliction shirt. Either way you can't figure out what they are. So, here they are: SHANTS-Shorts that go past your knees, sagging from your ass, and just stopping short from reaching your shoes. Half shorts-half pants.
