I learned this word watching GI Jane. The Master Chief called one of the trainees a dilettante when he quit the seal training. Had to look up the word.

I am guessing dilly dally is slang combining dilettante, someone not spending much effort at something, with dally, going slow just hanging around.

Some people use the word, inappropriately, as a euphemism for feminine or homosexual behavior................
