gay vague
Ambiguous portrayal in media of someone's sexuality, which may or may not be gay. Straight audiences may miss it but LGBTQ+ audiences may see it that way. First coined in 1997 by Michael Wilke, a reporter for trade publication Advertising Age, who wrote about a Volkswagen Golf commercial that aired during the much-publicized, April 1997 coming-out episode of "Ellen" (watched by 42 million viewers). It was known for the "Da Da Da" song and featured two young men who could be boyfriends or roommates that find a used chair to take home in their hatchback. Volkswagen claimed it didn't intend to hint that the guys were gay but it was okay if audiences read it that way -- a first for advertisers in that era. Later, Subaru stealthily ran billboards featuring LGBTQ+-coded license plates that said "XENA-LVR," a reference to the 1995-2001 show "Xena: Warrior Princess," which had a cult status within the lesbian community, and "P-TOWNIE," which refers to Provincetown, Massachusetts, a popular destination for the queer community. The license plates would only stand out to those in the know. According to Mulryan/Nash Advertising that produced the ads, they were intended to reach general audiences as well as provide a coded outreach to LGBTQ+ audiences with a wink and a nod.

This mug makes me happy :) reminds me of so many funny high school memories!
The mug came quickly and we love it!
These mugs are always good. I usually choose the neon green!
The mug is pretty and the writing on it is clear. It is of good quality and it makes me smile.
Well madder nice print. 8 0z cup. I'd prefer a mug but will be ordering 3 more. Just my cuppa tea (or coffee). Americans always make fun of some of the things I say. Recently my brother and I were talking about the Trawna Maple Leafs. I decided to look it up and sure enough there is was Trawna the city I grew up in. Now who has the last laugh.
I ordered pink but got purple, and the text wasn't very clean, but overall, it is a mug.
It was a gift for my sister, who wrote it. She loved it and so did I!
