Lil Nas X Wants ‘Bussy’ Added To The Dictionary For Pride Month

Pride month 2022 is all about the bussy!
That’s the message Grammy-winning artist Lil Nas X is sending, at least, and we’re 100% on board! Over the weekend, the “Industry Baby” rapper and singer tweeted that “for Pride Month it’s really important that our government finally take a stand and add bussy to the dictionary.” We couldn’t agree more!
Now Dictionary.com has decided to step up and be a true ally, responding “we’ve added WAP to the dictionary, so anything is possible.” Good pride indeed!!!
If you’re unfamiliar, “bussy” is a portmanteau of the words “boy” and “p*ssy” used to describe the anus. The the first time the word was used online was in 2007 where an urban dictionary user uploaded the definition “A slang term used by gay men to refer to Boy-P*ssy. In reference to their anus. Bussy has been used for at least 15 years by gay men to describe their asshole. man of love!
Although the phrase has been popular in the gay and trans communities for years, it reached a large following in 2019 when Taron Egerton made a video for BuzzFeed titled “Taron Egerton Reads Thirsty Tweets.”
One of the tweets he read in the video read “Taron Egerton is a white boy I trust to destroy my bussy.” After reading it, Egerton asked, “What does that mean?”
Now the word has become so ubiquitous that cis, straight people abuse it. But don’t worry, Lil Nas X is here to save us and make sure the word is used correctly. He even uses the word in an upcoming song.
There’s still about two weeks left in Pride Month, so that’s plenty of time for the dictionary to officially add bussy.
