Machosexual
Dicdef of neologism. The last time a page on this subject was created, earlier this year, it was deleted (debate); assuming this isn't speedyable as a repost (not being an admin, I can't check), the same arguments still apply: the word never gained much currency (Google now has 100 unique results rather than 22 as before), and WP:NOT a dictionary - though Wiktionary is, of course. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 21:41, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete NN neologism, nothing that doesn't belong in the Urban Dictionary. However, wikipedia is not that website. DeathThoreau 23:12, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I've checked. The prior article was different.  It stated that a machosexual is a homosexual male who behaves in a certain manner.  This article states that a machosexual is a heterosexual male who behaves in a certain manner.  That such mutually contradictory definitions, of what machosexuals are, have been added here indicates that both are concepts that have failed to actually gain any traction in the world at large.  This article, unlike the previous one, cites a source, namely an article in The Observer by Robert Young Pelton.  However, searching, I cannot find any evidence that the concept has been acknowledged by anyone else other than that person. Original research.  Delete. Uncle G 23:56, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
