shim
n.— «I don’t care too much for the shims (she and him at the same time) who ruin it for all the other self-respecting gays. Years ago, a dear friend of mine, who happens to be an O.G. (Original Gay) in the homosexual world, informed me that young gay men who have recently become official members of the club often over-exaggerate their “gayness” until they become comfortable being gay in their own skin. Sounds harmless, but unfortunately the rest of the world must suffer while shims around the world come out.» —“Is That a Wig?” Sincerely Ty May 2, 2007. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
