Line 7:
== Etymology ==
Maricón derives from the name María, a symbol of women and a frequent first name in 16th century Spain, century and place in which the term originated.
== History & Revindication ==
In an important sector of the gay community, at least in Spain, this word is used among queer individuals themselves without any pejorative burden. Many carry out a reappropriation or claim of «maricón» and other terms with similar connotations, similar to what was done among anglophones regarding the word queer.
