French vice

名詞

the French vice (uncountable)

1. (derogatory, potentially offensive) Euphemistic form of lust.
2. (derogatory, potentially offensive) Euphemistic form of homosexuality.
   • 2005, Mark Caldwell, New York Night, page 133:
     Of the dozen or so surviving articles, squibs, and letters to the editor, the most remarkable appeared in the _Whip and Satirist_’s February 12, 1842, issue, and disclosed the existence of a cabal of gay men in New York's otherwise wholesome nightscape of brothels and riots. Moreover it identified the spider who minced so delicately along the wide-flung strands of the sodomitical web. "There is not one so degraded as this Captain Collins, the King of the Sodomites." He was a foreigner, an Englishman, in the long tradition of blaming homosexuality on the influence of aliens. Among the syndicate of perverts, the writer announced, "we find no Americans as yet—they are all Englishmen or French" (the English called homosexuality the French vice かつ the French the English vice; for the Whip it was the French かつ English vice).
3. (derogatory, potentially offensive) Euphemistic form of vanity, excessive self-pride.
