Definitions

Anyone fresh out of the closet — newly out, wide-eyed, learning the references and the etiquette in real time. Broader than 'baby dyke' since it covers all of queer, and said with the same fond, protective energy by people who remember being one.

“Be gentle, he's a baby gay — first Pride, first crush, first everything.”
