==When?== When did the Shakespearean term punke (prostitute) turn into punk (male prostitute)? == To be moved == ''Since this page is a disambiguation, I've shortened it and removed the following text to be moved to another appropriate and more specific article. Strike throughs have been used in disamb page or moved. Maybe copy of this should go to Wikitionary?'' User:MacGyverMagic|^{User_talk:MacGyverMagic}">User:MacGyverMagic|User:MacGyverMagic|^{User talk:MacGyverMagic} 11:40, Nov 16, 2004 (UTC) :Yep, I suggest that all the etymological information and non-encyclopedic material be moved to the wiktionary page (I just created a link). The rest, we can somehow integrate into the relevant articles (for example the stuff on punk music should go to the punk rock article). --User:Lexor|User talk:Lexor 13:23, Nov 16, 2004 (UTC) ===Modern usage of the term=== ~~1. Reference to followers of punk music, punk fashion or culture.~~ 2. In prison slang, the term retains its urban street culture meaning and refers to a male who is treated as a sexual submissive. 3. Social and political set of beliefs, morals and standards indicating an absolute rejection of conformity. In many ways nihilistic, followers tend also to reject capitalism, government and social norms of the mainstream cultures and relgions. Alternately pacifist and violent by nature, it is a seemingly contradictory philosophy focused on the present. Adherents tend to prioritize the moment- often at the expense of history, or future personal success. An individual identifying as "punk" is likely to experience life as a raging fire or die trying. Many have co-opted the punk aesthetic for its commercial or cultural capital, yet the core believer will reject both. It is defined by its lack of definition. Adherents will reject arguments of most requirements, belief structure or even the label "punk" itself, yet when viewed from an objective standpoint these seemingly ungainly values come together as a unique way of living. ~~4. A small piece of kindling used for lighting slow-igniting substances.~~ ~~5. A small stub of a cigar. This meaning is derived from the oldest uses of the term.~~ ===Terms derived from the word punk=== Punk rock, named in reference to the above term, is a largely musical movement that arose in the mid to late 1970s and reached its peak of popularity in the early 1980s. Etymology of the term is suspect, but it likely derives from the customers of the first venue for such music, CBGB's in the Bowery in New York City, who were alledgedly male prostitutes. The music was therefore 'rock for punks.' More recently, many variants on the punk sensibility have resulted in the word ''punk'' being combined with other terms - for example, "eco punk," meaning a person with punk attitudes who is dedicated to environmentalism or concerns about ecology. ''See also:'' punk fashion, cyberpunk ''External links:'' [http://dmoz.org/Arts/Music/Styles/Rock/Punk/ Open Directory: Punk Rock] ===Original meanings=== The original meaning of ''punk'' is combustible material such as rotten, mouldy faggots of firewood or wood with Polyporus fungus growing on it. Alternative names: spunk, punkwood, funky stuff, amadou. The punkwood is dried or charred and used in a flint and steel fire. It may be used as tinder or char. When put into an already blazing fire, especially if not completely dried, this kind of material may cause explosive "popping" or "fizzing" sounds (''See also:'' fireworks). In Shakespearean slang ''punke'' is used as a word for a prostitute, interchangeable with the word ''"croshabell"''. For instance in ''"Merrie conceited Jests."'' by George Peele (undated but probably published in 1620) one of the jests is called ''"How George gulled a Punke, otherwise called a Croshabell."'' This meaning (prostitute) remains in use to the 18th century. In the early English Restoration (1672), Samuel Butler (1612-1680) begins Hudibras by saying that the English Civil War had:
". . . made them fight, like mad or drunk
For Dame Religion, as for punk,
Whose honesty they all durst swear for,
Though not a man of them knew wherefore." (Canto I, lines 4-7)
It is a meaning that has never entirely disappeared, though it has, in the 20th century, developed a specialized context. ~~Slang. A young person, especially a member of a rebellious counterculture group. An inexperienced young man. Music. Punk rock. A punk rocker.~~ ~~Slang. A young man who is the sexual partner of an older man. Archaic. A prostitute.~~
