Polite euphemism for a gay man (from Victorian times, on the premise that such a man will never marry.)

The two states of being are as a human being, or a hungry ghost. Semi-regularly you need to ask yourself which you are. Sometimes it is human. Others, alas, it is hungry ghost.
The hungry ghost seeks validity outside of themselves. Someone pining for an indifferent ex is a hungry ghost. Someone who arrives alone at 6:30 on Saturday night to a pub is probably a hungry ghost. Obsessive checking of mobile phones, chat sites or networks are clear signs that one is a hungry ghost.
The best thing to do is just stay home and ride it out. Read a book. Find some good clean fun.

Mate: How are you?
Dumped: I'm a hungry ghost, man.
Mate: What'd ya do last night?
HG: Urg. I hungry ghosted around The Oxford for a few hours, then walked home past her house, and HIS car was there...
Mate: Why'd you call man?! It's just rampant hungry ghostery.

Traditionally a man people never think will settle down or marry, who is too wild, or jaded against relationships (with males or females)

A common euphemism in the 40s and 50s, used as a polite word to describe a homosexual man.
Can also be used in the context that someone does not want to marry.

Something only the most Intelligent Men will decide to be. Does not mean that you are Gay, only means that you have decided that YOU will be in charge of your life and make all of the decisions in it, not some "Woman".
