Queers United: Word of the Gay: "AC-DC"

Sunday, February 8, 2009

"AC-DC" is queer code used in chatrooms to indicate that someone is bisexual and sexually interested in both men and women.

I still don't get why it's "ac-dc" though, do the letters mean anything?; February 8, 2009 at 12:39 AM

T. R Xands said...: I stopped being a lazy bastard for five minutes and from my scant googling, it apparently comes from alternate current/direct current...electrical devices are usually one or the other, AC/DC would be both so somehow that becomes a euphemism for bisexuality.

Unless anyone else has any other theories?; February 8, 2009 at 12:51 AM
