Fogó. Gay Dictionary (Cullera, Sueca).
Maternal warmth.
The Valencian word “Fogó” means fireplace, which is the appropriate place to make a fire and cook. Us to know, it is a word that is used in Sueca and Cullera to say fagot in Valencian slang language. About the origin of this expression, we refer to the article by Josep Franco, Sueca (Valencia, Spain) writer, published in the online journal L’informatiu.com already disappeared, in response to some of the controversial statements of Bishop of Alcalá de Henares. Don’t miss it http://goo.gl/F8gLJ6 (in Spanish).
Fogó illustration, you can purchase it printed on t-shirts and many products.
According to Josep Franco, a Fogó was a boy who stayed home while the rest of the children playing in the street. A boy who was under cover of his mother and under cover of the heat of the kitchen and the table stretcher. From the word “Fogó” derive other as “Fogonet” (ladybug, sissy), “Fogona” (pansy, queen) and “Fogoná” (fag thing).
It should be noted, in addition, that the stove in Valencian is synonymous with anus, used colloquially, and this is not casual, as we have seen on many occasions as the ass is related to male homosexuality giving rise to expressions such as the English “Ass Raider”, the homonymous “Culo” from the Italian language, “Stjärtlymmel” (rogue of the ass) from Swedish and “Găozar (ass hole) that we find in the Romanian language.
We want to collect money to send the shirt “Fogó” to the bishop of Alcala de Henares to continue the wonderful example and work begun by Josep Franco. From 0’25 €. Would you give 25 cents to send the Fogó t-shirt to the Bishop of Alcalá de Henares?
