SOP. Talk that occurs in a locker room. 2600:1000:B113:1DB8:A17F:A882:6B79:8EE4 18:20, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

The definition says "especially concerning sex" so apparently there's something more to it. Equinox 18:23, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Not SOP, just a bad definition. The SOP sense should be deleted, and the new meaning which it has taken on in the Trump Era should be kept. The new definition being something along the lines of "misogynistic language used by men in places where they are unlikely to be overheard by women." - TheDaveRoss 18:46, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
I doubt this was invented in Trump times. BTW canteen culture is a similar one. Equinox 22:32, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Shouldn't it more properly be locker-room talk? Mihia (talk) 21:54, 26 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
locker room talk, locker-room talk at Google Ngram Viewer. From what I have seen, this attributively used compound hyphenation business (or attributively-used-compound-hyphenation business) is subject to great variation in actual use. --Dan Polansky (talk) 12:46, 28 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
