race beard 

Someone who you coauthor with who has a marginalized racial identity (e.g. BIPoC), in order to credibly discuss race issues as a white person. Could equally apply to people of marginalized gender identity or sexual orientation (see queer beard).

Rapebeard

The Rapebeard is a thick beard, much like a chin strap, except thicker. The thickness of the Rapebeard allows the rapist to perform a silent rape, because the beard muffles out the screams the victim may give.

Phil: Where's Dan?
Chris: Probably putting his Rapebeard to use.
Phil: If only we could hear the screams...
