A raving homosexual is called a raver.

Alan Carr is a such a fucking raver! Have you ever seen Julian Clary? He's a complete raver!

A term used to describe a person (mainly a Generation Xer) who took part in the underground electronic music scene of the early-to-mid 1990s that became extremely commercialized and eventually died out at the end of the last century.

A number of teenagers and twentysomethings who were too young to attend raves back then now go around calling themselves "ravers" and listen to electronic music thinking that the rave scene is still flourising.

Much like emos, goths and freaks, ravers are categorized as rejects as well. They find that by wearing odd, brightly colored, carebear costumes they're expressing their creativity, diversity, and juvinile foolishness. However, creativity and uniqueness is not defined as "the act of putting a bunch of ugly shit on and listening to shitty music". As a result their attempts at expressing diversity is a misled one as they are not creative, simply eccentric to the point that it is both unoriginal and disturbing (not in the badass way, disturbing in the "damn your annoying" way). It is common knowledge that ravers are rejects of society and 'should-have-been-miscarriages'. Many people associate ravers with homosexuals. Ravers, however, simply give homosexuals a bad name and they simply take ever negative connotation of a homosexual and amplify it to the extent that you will find many homosexuals regarding ravers as "faggots".

John - "Why did that raver just shove his pacifier up his ass?" Mary - "Don't make eye contact, John!"

PLUR (Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect). I don't know about the peace, but the Love, Unity, and Respect is conditional. You'll only get those three if you are a) Under 20, b) Strung out on opiates, amphetamines, designer drugs, c) Follow the strict dress code of skimpy 'ironic' shirts, and huge ass pants. Otherwise, a waste of time and bears no similarity to real raves from 1985-1991.

Those ravers think music didn't exist before 1997.
