''Good ol' boy'' is an American slang term that can have both positive and negative meanings, depending on context and use. The term can be used for well socialized men who live in rural and generally Southern areas. If a man is humble and well thought of, he can be referred to as a "good old boy", regardless of his age. It is commonly applied to men with a family of generational wealth or prestige, or overall moral behavior. It can be used as a pejorative term, referring to someone who engages in cronyism among men who have known each other for a long period of time. Collectively these people are referred to using the slang term, good ol' boy network (also known as an old boys' club). ==See also== * *The Dukes of Hazard *Blues Brothers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「good ol' boy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
