Examples

  • The Footscray Australian Rules football team does not mind being nicknamed The Dogs; the man who dizzily rides on the load of a crane is honorably called the dogman (or has been, since the term is now condemned by Equal Opportunities legislation; a form dogperson, or, for that matter, bitchman, appears never to have been used).
