What's your favourite euphemism for gayness / queerness / homosexuality? (In any language, not restricted to English)

hmm I'm not typically a big fan of euphemistic language (if a straight called me "light in the loafers" I'd fly off the handle), but I do like "molly" for a gay man. I also like that "punk" in polari means a gay boy
