Man crush(男人间的欣赏)描述的是一个直男对另一个男人怀有尊敬、仰慕以及崇拜情绪时表现出来的那种强烈感情,而这一切与性无关。
《美国俚语词典》将have a crush on someone定义为“对某人着迷,尤其是对于年龄较大、更老练的人”。
To be infatuated or enchanted with someone,esp to be secretly in love with someone older and more worldly than oneself.
但这种着迷的状态发生在男人身上,就成了man crush。
美国新闻博客网站《郝芬顿邮报》这样解释:
A man crush is something that a straight male has for someone who is usually a public figure, a recognizable name, a celebrity.
Man crush指的是直男对其他人的仰慕,通常是对公众人物、名流或者明星。
这种感情在女孩之间也存在,叫作girl crush。
