Lakewhut – I think that was how the term started, but the Chareidim took back the term and turned it into a positive. So today it is not true anymore.
And I think the meaning of the term has shifted over the years which might explain why so many of the posters don’t get the way I am defining the term. Since most of them live in the US or at least haven’t lived in EY as long as I have, they are behind the times in this issue.
