Original Geek refers to people who are geeks who have been in tech & computers for decades; much longer than it has been trendy.
My brother is an OG*, an Original Geek, because he's been working with computers since the late 70's!

Get the OG* mug.When a woman is gutsy or bold, strong, independent and fearless. Instead of saying 'ballsy' one can use 'ovarius' or 'ovatius'...as it refers to her 'eggs' or the female equivalent of 'balls'.

Get the Ovarius mug.Instead of LGBTQIA or whatever insane number of lettered acronyms are created to describe the plethora of non-traditional, non-heterosexual relationships of some people, how about call people who don't fit into typical heterosexual standards, COUNTER-SEXUAL. Just like with counter-culture, which is COUNTER to the mainstream, COUNTER to traditional most popular culture, COUNTER-SEXUAL becomes a similar word to describe anyone from that population when referring in GENERAL. When speaking in specifics then someone can still say, gay, lesbian, transgender, intersex etc....otherwise in general reference, it could be COUNTER-SEXUAL which is much more simple and to the point, more literal and less complicated, less controversial or uncomfortable, more neutral while still honoring the differences while trying to include all the different types of sexualities-which could end up using the entire alphabet!
Studies show that there are more counter-sexual characters in mainstream television shows since 2014.
The counter-sexual movement includes all types of sexualities that are not heterosexual.

Get the Counter-Sexual mug.The Macho Paradigm© is the overall system of conditioning of masculine or male dominated culture, esp. here in the U.S. This is the system by which parents and society raise children, primarily boys by emphasizing macho stereotypes, expectations, behaviors, standards of emotional repression through the shaming of boys in particular that if they don't live up to these standards they are considered weak and inadequate. This is often done by a comparison to and , the condescension of femininity/female stereotypical behavior such as emotional, gentle, sensitive as the epitome of weakness. Anyone can be negatively affected by The Macho Paradigm© but most of all males are harmed by it's constant pressure it puts on them to live up to a stereotype of what a man is even if it causes pain on him or those around him. Things like chauvinism and misogyny as well as peer pressure could theoretically be traced back to The Macho Paradigm© as a root source of that programming that causes people to not only repress themselves to appear tough and cool but then to shame others into the same macho conformity. ©2014/DM
Examples of Peer Pressure Quips in the Macho Paradigm©:
'Man-Up' . 'Don't be a pussy' . 'He hits/throws like a girl'
Noun-The Macho Paradigm is the system we live in at the root of everything.
'The Macho Paradigm is one of the main causes in culture that drives men to put each other down when they are not tough or macho enough and sometimes even bully them'.
'Many boys feel like they can never measure up living in a culture influenced by The Macho Paradigm©'.

Get the Flover mug.A more appropriate word to describe girls who are rugged, sporty, NOT overtly girlish or frilly and less interested in clothes, makeup or remaining clean and pretty while playing.
Girls who play hard and are willing to get dirty and even rough, often playing in and doing typical boys activities, even though WE"RE NOT BOYS! We just know how fun it is to play like a boy ;) . But calling a rugged, street savvy girl a 'tomboy' negates her uniqueness as a non-traditional female. This way that is still honored but recognizes her tough, sporty ways.

"I was a real tomgirl as a child; complete with a boys bike, hotwheels and short hair."
"She's a total tomgirl, she just loves rough-housing in the dirt, chasing and playing hard with the boys without a worry for herself or her clothes!"

Get the Tomgirl mug.A Human Crush is when you have a crush on someone or adore them but in a platonic, non-sexual way.
(I created this term in late 90's but can't remember when? 1997?)

I just love Robin Wright, I have such a human crush on her!!
He's amazing, that old guy from the corner market, I have a human crush on him.
(not a sexy term but sweeter way of saying boy or girl crush which is odd)
