par vārdu "boyfriend"
In the past it had implications of an illicit relationship (as sexual
and romantic relationships outside marriage were generally frowned
upon).
[citation needed]
It is now a generally accepted term, however, no longer having negative
connotations. An earlier usage in print, dating from July 1889, is
discussed in
Neil Bartlett's,
Who Was That Man? A Present for Mr Oscar Wilde. On pages 108-110, Bartlett quotes from an issue of
The Artist and Journal of Home Culture, which refers to
Alectryon as "a boyfriend of
Mars."
