When His Moon Hits Your Tongue Like a Big Pizza Pie, That's Polari!


My No. 1 Brit Tim Teeman once told me about Polari, a gay language invented and used by gay men in Great Britain in the '50s and '60s in order to evade detection. But the more he explained it to me, the more the made-up words sounded more obscene than actually saying what you meant. Perhaps Tim didn't explain it to me -- with that accent of his I only understand about 30% of what he says! Read about the gay-fabulous way of speaking HERE
