An interesting and certainly real topic, but I can't find any reliable sources online using this term. Indeed, most of the instances I did find of this term refer to an entirely separate phenomenon, that of clothes sizes altering to flatter buyers. It's been marked as original research for a while so perhaps it really is. Rigadoun (talk) 03:09, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, seems to be no more than a definition, and seems a WP:NEO. Matbe on wiktionary, but now wikipedia, it is not a dictionary. AtheWeatherman 18:35, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. It probably could be expanded beyond dicdef if there were references (like the history or spread of the practice). I advise against transwiki unless references are found. Rigadoun (talk) 03:05, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete as I suspect this is a term that may have been made up as a joke. --Gavin Collins (talk|contribs) 07:06, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
