“I do not think I know the word cotquean,” said Stephen. “Perhaps it is rather out of use now, but we lived in a Remote part of Yorkshire and my grandfather often used it - most of his neighbors were cotqueans, particularly those that did not choose to hunt the fox or hare. He meant that they were somewhat effeminate, given to embroidery and probably to sodomy - little better than Whigs.”
