The last innocent use of the word was in reference to a type of bus called the chi-chi 'white' bus. This was a large, white bus (made by the White Motor Company) that was introduced into Jamaica in the mid to late 1960s. It produced short, sharp, explosive, sneezing sounds whenever the air brakes were applied. The sounds were mimicked by the word chi-chi.

Variations of phrases with klaat are also part of the Jamaican culture. They are also not permitted on this board. [/qb]

Pepper, are you saying that it is against the board rules to use "chi chi" to refer to homosexuals and homosexuality? And does this include other offensive terms, like b!attyman, boooootie man, etc?

I think it is important that Blugiant's question be answered definitively. Not just for him, but for everybody.

Thank you.

Not by me. I have no objection to the term chi chi, except when it is used as a derogatory term to refer to homosexuals.

The same goes for b!atty and booootie.
