GA Russell Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 It's time again to confess my ignorance. Recently I've seen a number of headlines on the internet referring to women as WAGs, apparently meaning the men's girlfriends. What does WAG stand for? Quote

Blue Train Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) Wives and Girlfriends...it started out for slang for the wives and girlfriends of those that played Futbol in the UK. Enter the horrorfest that is reality tv in the U.S., and caught on in the U.S. P.S. There actually is a reality show called Starter Wives Confidential on TCL. At one time TCL was known as The Learning Channel. Now, it might as well be the Honey Boo Boo, etc. channel. P.P.S. I am going to let you google Honey Boo Boo.

Jazzmoose Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Hey, you people aren't really going to google Honey Booboo are you? If so, you might as well add the classics and check out tubgirl and goatese as well... Quote

You really don't want to google either one of those if @ a place you can be fired from, etc.... And as much as a horrorfest as Honey Boo Boo is....it's not in the same Universe.
