Castro clone noun a homosexual who conforms to a clean-cut, fashionable image US The Castro is a predominantly gay neighbourhood in San Francisco.- If the Castro Clone* look of self-conscious masculinity, for example, seems to be the image of choice among San Francisco gay men, there is still a greater awareness that those gender symbols are assumed not inherent. (*The short hair, trimmed moustache and athletic build currently popular among many gay men in the Castro district of San Francisco.) — Wendy Chapkis, Beauty Secrets, p. 136, 1986
- Most of the gay men in S.F., except for my friends, were going through this generic lumberback period, and were called “Castro Clones” because they all lived or hung out in the Castro. — Jennifer Blowdryer, White Trash Debutante, p. 58, 1997
