“cakeboy” is a term i first came across in clueless. in this case, it is used to announce that the man is h-m-s-xual, and while some would describe it as hateful, i happen to think it is a rather nice word, and hope that someday it will be used by the general public to promote h-m-s-xuality. rarer still is my creation “cakegirl” (not yet in circulation) which means “lesbian”.
