Cupcaking(1)
derivation verb
Skipping out on practice, bro-time, or other manly activity to spend time with one’s girlfriend. This word tends to have a negative connotation, likely due to the connotation of “cupcake” as a derogative term for an effeminate man. This term is common among athletes who may skip practice on a regular basis for this reason.
