  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

why is the website called justusBOYS?

I think its more like the old lime from many a film noir: The boys in the back (backroom) what many gay bars are notorious for!
 
Gay men have to be careful about using the term boy around straights, due to that old pedo trope. There was a gay guy at a place where I worked that said something about liking boys, meaning 20 year olds, but a couple of the straights thought he was talking about little kids. That's the way their minds think.

What is wrong with the word "gotten"?
Click to expand...

The answer to that question is answered by the famous saying that the UK and USA are divided by a common language. In Britain it seems funny that whatever the real English word is, Americans seems to think 'how can we make that more complicated'? In English, I was burgled becomes burglarised, the letter Z (zed) becomes zee - and then, having renamed the alphabet the Americans decide to use the damn thing everywhere they shouldn't, everywhere that a S should be now a Z mysteriously appears. The next attack is on the letter U, which they decide doesn't belong in colour, honour etc. All this because we burned the White House down in 1776! LOL Gotten is, perhaps, the one single word which grates British people as it's so wrong and should never be used, ever. Whatever you want to say, there's a better word than 'gotten'.
 
You could always mis-spell boys with a Z (zed), I believe Americans are into that kind of thing...

In standard English you'd probable say "I am quite used to using it". At school, I was taught to avoid the words 'get' and 'got' as there was always a more suitable word. This isn't always true, I'm sure, but it's a good starting point as got is only one step away from the evil 'gotten' and then where will we be?

About the word 'chav';

No, it's not. I'm not sure what the link is for, are you trying to tell me what the word 'chav' means? If so, I'm in England and so I know exactly what it means!

chav = noun
(British English, offensive, informal)
​An offensive word for somebody, usually a young person, who you think behaves, dresses or speaks in a way that shows their low social class and lack of education
 
From the link:

It comes from a Romany word, ‘chavi’ which means child and this is quite a well established etymology and it happened in the south east of England that this was borrowed into English and it’s sort of spread from there via the internet and the media and these kinds of things, it’s sort of spread.

It England the word 'chav' is essentially the same as your words 'trailer trash' and 'red necks', it's sod all to do with the world 'child'. Why on Earth am I being lectured on the English language by an American? I live here!

"Gotten" is the past participle of "get". Really, this is the first time I've been told there is anything wrong with it. I am surprised.

The White House was built in 1792 and you burned it in 1814.

I'm sensing a little snobbery here, like you own the language and are still pissed off because you lost. There are plenty of things you say that grate on the nerves too. Such as not saying the letter 'R' where it belongs, and saying the letter 'R' where it does not belong. For instance, that British commercial about about a bettUH silvUH cleanUH, or a glass of watUH. Then there are the British journalists these days talking about RussiER and ChinER, or you need an umbrellER if it is raining. It goes both ways.

I do go to the "theatre" however. If something unexpected happens, I am indeed "surprised". If it makes you feel better.

boys in all caps makes it just a little bit cringier. compounded by the past trend of those weird "when was your first time" or "when you were 12 years old white kind of underwear did you wear?" threads that used to be kinda popular til it became obvious there was a deeper motive beyond sharing coming-into-your-sexuality tales.

it's kinda like hollywood in the 60s how everything seemed innocent on the surface then 60 years later after 20 sex abuse victims come forward you start to notice the pointless scenes of gratuitous near-nudity that contribute nothing to the narrative. i forget the name but my Freshmen english teacher made this exact remark about a director who was infamous for having scenes of prepubescent boys in their undies. Bryan Singer and his "totally innocent" preteen shower scenes back in the day comes to mind.

And considering it was a pay site, the boys clearly weren't the visitors. I guess adding the Coming Out forum later on helped justify the name
