“I want a learning guy … My parents want a college boy… or I want a college boy… and they want a learning guy.”
Is it just me, or do others also see the use of the word “guy” when associated with someone learning in yeshiva, but when he is working he is suddenly only a “boy”.
Boy implies young and immature while guy implies someone older and more mature.
