Definitions
1
Canadian prison term, deeply derogatory, for a child sex offender or rapist. Like 'goof', it's a fighting word inside — saying it to someone's face is an accusation that demands a response, and other inmates will be watching to see if the accused fights back.
“Once he was labelled a skinner he had no choice but to check in to PC.”
