bean queen
1. gay slang A Hispanic or Mexican homosexual male. I like hanging out with fellow bean queens, because we can relate to each other through our culture and our sexual identification.
2. gay slang A non-Hispanic homosexual male who is primarily attracted to Hispanic men. Note: Discretion must be used with both instances of this term since it can be construed as being either a pejorative or in celebration of self-identification. I do tend to date mostly Hispanic men, so I suppose you could call me a bit of a bean queen.

hangar queen
1. An aircraft that spends more time being serviced or requiring maintenance than it does flying. The new stealth jet was a promising addition to the Air Force's fleet, but due to its frequent breakdowns, it has proved to be more of a hangar queen than a useful plane.
2. An airplane that is permanently grounded so that its parts may be used to repair other aircraft. I loved my first plane, but as I began buying more, it became a mere hangar queen to replace the parts of the newer ones.
ice queen
pejorative A coolly composed, unemotional woman; a woman without affection or warmth of feeling. I don't know how Janet can go out with an ice queen like Mary. Many see the prime minister as some kind of ice queen, but I think she's just being as tough as she needs to be.
