It's best defined as:
The process by which, mysteriously, all testosterone is drained from the bodies of otherwise virile American males, especially those who enter political life, in their vain attempts to make women like them in order to get their votes. Which, in the end, is entirely futile because women don't want to vote for jellyfish!!!
Now... are you seriously trying to tell me there are actually "young and tender" members of FreeperLand? You have GOT to be KIDDING!!! They usually do not remain "virginal" for very long, Grampa!!!
