Noun

Origin

  • Ultimately unknown, but various theories exist. Modern usage was popularized by American television show The League; the term itself likely stems from a misinterpretation or invented hoax about some Inuit and Aleutian peoples' cultural practices of polygamy and polyamory, especially among married women and their male guests.
