"Jakie boy is an expression of only so-called whites of the Boston genre" (104 hits)

I have been to Boston many times and know the culture of the dominant group Irish and other European tribes. They have distinct cultural expressions, such as: "Park your CAR..... in Boston, Hey Jimmie Boy, etc. I have attended business meetings in Boston among the so-called white businessman and the they will eventually label you with 'Robbie boy, Jimmie Boy, etc., or a reference to their friends in that manner over lunch or dinner. Just like so-called black americans/latinos refer to males as "SON" in New York.
Cultural slang usually determines the geography of where you live. However among the so-called black americans in Boston the fore mentioned cultural expressions are not used. Posted By:
