A useful neologism, but one that is frequently misunderstood and misused. 1. Most literal meaning -- tending to engage or arouse sexual interest, or imply an erotic connection, by one man for another. 2. Extended meaning, sometimes misused (see Example 2 below): a coded type of homosexual reference invisible to [heterosexuals]. This is fine as far as it goes, but it should not exclude [heterosexuals]. 3. Similarly, if used carelessly, "homoerotic" can be misused to imply an [environment] in which same-sex attraction exists simply because of same-sex affiliation. In other words, a judgment is made regarding sexuality where none should exist, allowing the speaker to practice psychology without a license. 4. Often the butt of malapropisms.
