A
male, cultivated by a female to be somewhere between
just friends and a
lover. Usually involves plenty of
teasing, and the
dog-like loyalty of the male.
Actually, a bit more like hell than just friends.
Update: I have since discovered someone on the internet who uses the term to refer to a submissive male that would essentially worship a female through backrubs , cooking, and doing other little things for her. In return, the male gets... (wait for it) sexual tension. The page I found presents a slight BDSM feel to this idea.
