Can “beefcake” serve as a verb to mean showing off big muscles?
My dad is the first one nutter in a Times article on the second quarter of 2017: “India now makes up less than a third of global box-office
receipts and studios tend to favor projects featuring explosions, car chases and doomsday scenarios. This “politically correct” is easily translated in China, India, Brazil and Europe. Meatcakes: Almost without exception, these films stars some beefcake with pecs that make Ben Hur’s seem puny. ”
beefcake is noun: (slang) a man with big
muscles..especially those that appear in sex show and magazines
Why is “be” given instead of “the movie stars”? I don’t seem to me somehow flow smooth. ”
Is it a verb to mean “beefcake” being used here as a verb to mean showing off their big muscles?
Why does the word some after “Almost without exception,” have a meaning? What do you think of the word “some”?
As
hindsight, I came to realize “the movies” is the subject, “stars” is the verb, and “(some) beefcake” is the object. In my above question, I took “the movies stars” a subject as I thought it should be “star” (i.e. stars) if the adjective is a verb, because/a movie is in the plural form. Is “The movies star* s * some beefcake ” grammatically correct expression?
What are some good topics to have in a blog?
“Cheesecake” is a traditional slang term for pictures of attractive women, particularly movie stars and most especially those pictures which show the women in seductive poses or less than fully clothed. A very good analogy, a soft and sweet one.
In recent years, the back-form “beefcake” has been introduced as the masculine equivalent.
Properly, both cheesecake and beefcake are adjectives applied to characterize images in question. What are nouns and where are they used, so they can be used as verbs. We can understand anything of that type. They are typically seen as people getting out of a theater or participating in a movie. In short, they can refer to people they have seen “live”.
The closest thing to a gender-neutral equivalent that I can think of is the “eye candy”, which is sometimes used to refer to a visually attractive
individual.
Eg, the star is “some beefcake with pecs that…”, so beefcake is a noun, I think in this case the movie star IS, not (norm of) the star…. It has the same use as the word “man” or “dude” or “hunk”.
When did you start writing The original writings a bit odd and why? “Without exception (the star) is beefcake (their signature soft cheese) that makes Ben Hur’s sound big. “If
you wanted to use beefcake as a verb, you could use beefcake or beefcaking, as in “hey, look at that loser over there trying to beefcake 500 lb barbells?” Wheres that dude in the backyard beefcaking the 500lb barbells? I want my male friend to be beefcakey. He is a beast. Oh, my! ”
These aren’t typical usage (usually a noun), but with a word like beefcake (which I think may have been invented in a South Park episode ) I’m pretty sure you don’t need to worry too much about typical usage. At least not in speech or informal writing.
If you used beefcake as a verb, you would not use it as a verb. If you could noun almost anywhere, which means or noun more, it’s not uncommon.
Regardless of how it is chosen in the usage section, sometimes it is being used as a noun.
Is beefcake a compliment to you? Why is there more muscle in someone than intelligence?
In other words what they are saying:
Almost without exception, the movie stars in an interview a muscular guy with huge pectoral muscles that would make Ben Hur’s seem puny.
Ben Hur is more a reference to Charlton Heston and the role of John Wayne. Is it true that he played the same role in the movie to the same extent?
With some in this context means any random or any old or it doesn’t matter which option. To answer your second question, some in this context means any old, no matter whether or not. In all terms there are a lot of guys with good acting skills who show in these movies, and it doesn’t really matter which one gets because their acting skills aren’t all that different or important (so long as they have big muscles).
