Someone (more often than not American) who holds an extremely romanticised view of England and the English. Can be found putting on an Dick Van Dyke-esque English accent and saying things like 'fag'.
a person who favors English or British culture over their own. they consider British history, arts, music, culture, etc. (modern or historical) to be superior to their own. this person may use preferred British spelling for common words such as colour instead of color, favourite instead of favorite, centre, instead of center, grey instead of gray, etc.
"Stop obsessing over Shakespeare, you Anglophile!"
A lover of things English; used pejoratively or self-referentially.
In practice, a person with an unhealthy admiration for English culture. Similar to a wigger or Otaku. Contrasted somewhat by an asiaphile whom, while lusting after either the aura or perceived accessibility of an Asian mate, generally has a non-existent or patronizing relationship with Asian culture.
Anglophiles will listen to any trashy club-pop, as long as a skinny guy from the smallisland poses in a "mod" suit on the poster.
Technically speaking it's not a man who has sex with cars. As I'm one such I know my subject. An autophile is in love with him or herself sexually. So I'm stuffed for a good word to use (apart from the often heard, insane, crazy, etc). The only alternative I've heard is automobiliphilia. Quite a mouthful, more than the gearknob of a Jaguar XJ8 so probably won't be popular. There probably should be two words. One for a person who loves his car on every level and has it as a substitute totally for a human partner and one for a man who simply fucks it.
Since I'm simply adding a correction to a word, not sure what a relevent example would be. Apart from mentioning that I myself am an avid automobilophile, not autophile (not the only thing in my life mind!).
