Two well-known beards were Linda Lee Thomas and Phyllis Gates. They were married, respectively, to gay celebrities Cole Porter and Rock Hudson. The term “beard” describes someone who poses as the lover of a closeted homosexual. But it’s also slang for someone who places a bet for a horse trainer.

And if people say you have “a crumb in your beard,” it might mean they think you’re drunk.
