BEAR, ONE OF MANY LGBT COMMUNITIES WITH CULTURE-SPECIFIC IDENTITY.


In male gay culture, a BEAR is often a larger, hairier man who projects an image of rugged masculinity. Bears are one of many LGBT communities with events, codes, and a culture-specific identity.

BEARS are almost always gay or bisexual men. However, as LGBT culture and modern slang has taken on a wider appeal in modern society, it is possible to call a hairy and burly straight man a bear (although they would not be strictly part of the gay bear community).

Some slang terms relating to the Bear community include the following:
  • Cuba younger (or younger-looking) version of a bear, typically, but not always, with a smaller frame.
  • DaddyA mature bear who is often looking for a cub (or a younger man) for a relationship.
  • Pocket BearA bear of short stature.
  • OtterA slimmer or less hairy bear regardless of age.
  • ChaserSomebody who is attracted to bears and/or chubs but is not part of the bear culture.
  • Chub A heavy-set man who might be described as overweight or obese.
  • TeddyA fully hairy bear. Chest, back, beard, everything is hairy.
  • MusclebearA bear whose size derives from muscle rather than body fat.
  • Black BearA bear of African descent.
  • Polar BearAn older bear whose facial and body hair is predominantly or entirely white or grey.
