Sally Boy Mug
This is the real definition for a Sally Boy. It's the original definition used for a ship hand/steward on a ship. I'm sorry everyone, sally boy was not originally meant to mean a homosexual or an effeminate male. The word "Sally" came from the word salay. Salay boy is a cabin boy, steward, ship hand, etc. Their job is to help maintain the ship and assist each other (if there's more than one aboard the ship), the sailors (and pirate sailors), officers, cooks, the captain, any co-captains, and the first mate (who is also a co-captain). They also assisted the passengers on the ships as well. The dress style back then may have seemed effeminate due to the time period and dress style at that time (prior to current dress style used by sailors in the merchant marines and other garb with by sailors from other localities). These boys (adolescents)/men (unless they were new to the job as an adolescent) were treated as men and respected as men for their jobs (no offense to the women, we all know the superstitions back then; unless a woman tricked or was allowed to trick the sailors and Captain ;) and became a Salay Boy). They are very important individuals on the ship. It is a respected career/profession. The derogatory term that is used today, is from a difference in dialects. It's the clothing that I'd assume is the reason for the term being used to wrongly discriminate against someone and to treat someone badly due to being different by societies norms.

wow! this mug is so thoughtful to giving to my wife!
The description tells nothing but facts. 5 stars instant
Your description is right on, except in 1989 I named my daughter Kallen Mikel (www.kallenmikel.com/original-art). I thought I made up the name, but apparently, it originated as a boy's name in Greek and Hebrew. I first found this out in 2001 when I was traveling to Finland. In the 'tube food' section in a big Finnish supermarket there it was, a royal blue tube of salmon paste with a blonde-haired boy named Kallen! So now I have discovered that there are many Kallen's of both sexes. I want to buy her a cup, but it has 'him' on it. Is there any way you can make that a unisex description for both sexes? Just askin'. Being a Barbara (Barbs) myself ... a 'cake eater' from Edina, MN I had to ask ... haha ;-)
Thank you for the mug. It arrived fast and exceeded my expectations.
