11. This term was once applied to rather vain men who were overly conscious of their appearance. What was it?
From Quiz Sops, Pops and Stops
Answer:
Fops
A fop was the type of man usually portrayed in those lovely English period dramas seen on the screen from time to time. He dressed impeccably, always the epitome of what the fashionalble young man around town wore, and was perfumed and plumed, and snooty beyond all description. He also tended to adopt studied poses and spoke in a languid, affected voice. He could be seen flicking a speck of dust off his tailored coat as he minced along the promenade, or elegantly sniffing snuff. In short, he made one long to push him into a very deep and very muddy puddle. He was also known as a dandy, a popinjay or a coxcomb by infuriated, red-faced older men, and of course, the fop is still with us today. He just goes by another name and another style of fashion instead.
