otter n. The bears that made a big splash in Chilliwack are members of the social group VanCubz, a bunch of down-to-earth guys who are hefty and/or hirsute, and their admirers.…Allan is what is known in bear parlance as an otter. That means someone who is slim or average-sized, with some facial and/or body hair. [EnglishGaySex & SexualitySlang] [full cite] (Sep. 13, 2007)
pickle park n. Buffalo Mountain is a park for hiking and walking—and is also known as the local “pickle park” for closeted homos looking for blow jobs and the sort. [EnglishGaySex & SexualitySlang] [full cite] (Jun. 5, 2007)
pickle park n. The other thing about Aquatic Park is that I once heard someone refer to it as “Pickle Park” because apparently, this is a common place for men to hookup. [EnglishGaySex & SexualitySlang] [full cite] (Jun. 5, 2007)
pink purge n. Some Christians, who are pivotal to the GOP’s get-out-the-vote effort, are charging that gay Republican staffers in Congress may have thwarted their legislative agenda.

pinkwash v. Viewers were so burned out by the time Scott Rudin finally gave his acceptance speech for best picture that you had to TiVo back to notice what Kim points out—that his shout-out to his life partner, John Barlow, was unaccompanied by a cutaway shot to Barlow’s face. Defamer even notes that Rudin’s mention of his “honey” was absent from the official press transcript and wonders whether the academy was guilty of “pinkwashing.“ [EnglishGay] [full cite] (Feb. 29, 2008)
shim n. I don’t care too much for the shims (she and him at the same time) who ruin it for all the other self-respecting gays. Years ago, a dear friend of mine, who happens to be an O.G. (Original Gay) in the homosexual world, informed me that young gay men who have recently become official members of the club often over-exaggerate their “gayness” until they become comfortable being gay in their own skin. Sounds harmless, but unfortunately the rest of the world must suffer while shims around the world come out. [EnglishGaySex & SexualitySlang] [full cite] (Jul. 19, 2007)
