Papaloy
mexican “slang” word used by high cl-ss, modern, urban youth to describe themselves or other young high cl-ss males. “papaloy” is the contraction and decomposition of the english words ‘father’ as “papa”, and ‘lord’ as “loy” as they intend to represent the social “dominance” and “superiority” of a high-cl-ss, young mexican male.
for the sake of definition, a “papaloy” is a young, wealthy, mexican male who is stereotypically very good looking and studly and whose daily wardrobe always features very exclusive, high-end european or american brands. this here is the most important and identifying feature of a real “papaloy”. needless to say, ‘knock-offs’ of an exclusive brand (shoes, belts, sungl-sses, jackets, shirts) would never be worn by a “papaloy”.
in addition to this, a so called “papaloy” is frequently seen in fashionable night clubs, exclusive restaurants, fashion malls and other high cl-ss social sites in the wealthy areas of mexico city such as polanco, santa fe or bosques.
“papaloys” are also known to have sky-high self esteems and to be potentially c-cky and arrogant towards “non-papaloy” people. furthermore, they are usually paired up or highly “sought after”by high-cl-ss, wealthy and beautiful females for their wealth and good looks.
strictly speaking, there isn’t a feminine version of “papaloy”, however the technical feminine equivalent of a “papaloy” in mexico would be called a “niña bien” (in english: “good girl” or “well girl” as in ‘well-off’…)
an internationally recognizable and (to some point) accurate example of an authentic mexican “papaloy”, would be the fictional character ‘chuck b-ss’ from the american teen drama series ‘gossip girl’, while ‘serena van der woodsen’ and ‘blair waldorf’ accurately exemplify a mexican “niña bien”.
it is important to note that not just any young, wealthy, mexican male can be or should be cl-ssified as a “papaloy” as he should strictly meet all clauses of the descriptive criteria already mentioned in the definition.
technically speaking, a “papaloy” can be from 15 to almost even 30 years old as long as he continues to meet the criteria.
