"But 'Cavalier Servente' is the phrase/Used in politest circles to express/This supernumary slave, who stays/Close to the lady as a part of dress--"

"Beppo," George Gordon, Lord Byron

Stuntcock is my fave, but Manstress sounds quite good.

so he gets to put it in you whenever you're feeling randy while some other shmuck buys your tampons, deals with your day to day kvetching, and is browbeaten into going to Thanksgiving dinner with your obnoxious neocon family?

I'd call him smart.

This thread is two years old and nobody's come up with "Sancho" yet?

Nicolars is right - the correct expression is Fancy Man.

What's wrong with the unisex word "lover"?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Wednesday, 23 November 2005 13:09 (twenty years ago)

Haha, the English language proves its poverty once again. We French of course have a word for this, "amant".

Isn't that the same as "lover"?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Wednesday, 23 November 2005 14:20 (twenty years ago)

well it's only used for illicit male lovers - male mistresses - if you will.

― Baaderonixx weaves a daisy chain for... SATAN!! (baaderonixx), Wednesday, 23 November 2005 14:24 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, I think the Finnish word for lover, "rakastaja", is used in the same sense - always for illicit or at least dubious affairs. "Rakastettu" ("loved one") is the word for morally acceptable lovers.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Wednesday, 23 November 2005 14:37 (twenty years ago)

"Your lover has been vetted by the People's Commissar for Sexing and found to be of the highest moral fiber. You may proceed."

I kinda thought a "mistress" was by definition a kept woman of a powerful/rich and married man, not just any woman a man has an affair with.

Cicisbeo What a freaking awesome word, it's like a Cocteau Twins song title. Which is funny because they also have one called "My Love Paramour" .
