It's been going around school that the word stud means, and I quote, "The dominant male in a gay relationship."
I don't know about you guys, but I've never heard the word used this way, and it's kinda weird. Anyone heard this before or have any thoughts about it?

Malchik89 · 4th Dec 2008, 11:14 PM

I always thought stud just meant hot guy lol

Brett · 4th Dec 2008, 11:16 PM

Exactly, that's what I said.

Austin · 4th Dec 2008, 11:17 PM

I thought a stud was a hot guy who had sex lots.

george678 · 4th Dec 2008, 11:26 PM

Same.^

4th Dec 2008, 11:27 PM

Same as everyone else here hot guy lol don't know where the other meaning came from it's kind of weird.

Bunny · 4th Dec 2008, 11:31 PM

New one on me.

...Your school is weird. xD

Brett · 4th Dec 2008, 11:33 PM

Tell me about it, I think I'm just gonna show this page to people to let them know that gay men don't even know about this term....

ArcusPuer · 4th Dec 2008, 11:35 PM

ha ur school is weird!
i think the poll shows the truth!

**Gerry** · 4th Dec 2008, 11:41 PM

Yeah my definition is the exact same as everyone else's.

Kryz · 5th Dec 2008, 12:00 AM

Stud means exactly the same as all the other above...

DO the kids at your school even kow what gay means? lol

Amy · 5th Dec 2008, 12:14 AM

I've heard it.

But that was at Livermore, and some of those people are a little...odd.

musicgirl112233 · 5th Dec 2008, 03:46 AM

I heard it like a month ago at school.

Janvier · 5th Dec 2008, 03:50 AM

I know about tongue studs and hot guys but I didn't think it could also mean the 'dominant male' in a gay couple.

UnderARock · 5th Dec 2008, 03:54 AM

Well bac in the day of sex ed at my christian high school, i had a teacher say a stud is a male slut. Generally to me a stud is a very hot and sexually attractive male. Stud is more on the the muscular jock side of thing than the pretty-boi twink side.
I never heard that meaning of stud.

Trystan · 5th Dec 2008, 04:02 AM

same ^ lol

5th Dec 2008, 06:45 AM

Funnily enough I came across it when the word stud needed a definition (nope not the gay one the horse one) But I think it has some form of relation to it...and yes I have heard it used several times both here in england and back home in australia

Mickey · 5th Dec 2008, 07:58 AM

A male animal,used for breeding purposes? lol!

Jonathan · 5th Dec 2008, 02:17 PM

No, I've never heard it used that way before.

Trumpetplyer23 · 6th Dec 2008, 05:58 AM

I've always heard girls use 'stud' as a way to mean hot guy. It also has something to do with horses, am I right?

Guys don't say stud unless they're talking about poker or horses.

No, I've never heard it used like that.
