man-love

This past weekend the GCC ’09 class went on a fall break trip to Jersey Shore; it was a really amazing time. We spent time playing on the beach, watching movies, traveling into the city and sharing something that I like to call “man-love.” That’s right man-love. For the ladies who will never experience man-love, I’ve included a definition below.

Main Entry: man-¹love
Pronunciation: maen\’ləv\
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Old English lufu

1: Strong manly bond with another man arising out of kinship or personal ties; completely non-sexual affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests
2: Unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another; brotherly concern for others
3: Comraderie felt by men on the same sports team (as demonstrated by the love-tap)
4: Common method of displaying affection among GCC brothers

It’s crazy this thing they call man-love.
