When someone uses term boi does that mean gay male?
One of my co workers said that is the case and asked "where have I been" when I said I did not think that was correct. But I couldn't answer why people spell the word like that.

I’m not exactly sure either. I kind of associated it with someone that is perhaps effeminate, wimpy, or not much of a man. By that I mean the subject being called “boi” has those qualities.
There’s a poster here with the moniker of “Runnerboy70.” He is often ref to as “Runnerboi” by others. I assume that those calling him “runnerboi” assume that he has the aforementioned qualities.
I'd say it doesn't necessarily imply that the person is gay. Got it ladyboi?
I thought that meant they were a tranny?
It is a new gender, one that is loyal only to Fauci.
We also are un-ironically fans of Seth James Demoor and Alexi Papas.

When I first became aware of boi about 20-25 years ago, it meant young butch lesbian. Later boi came to be mostly strongly associated with the growing numbers of young butch lesbians who'd begun injecting testosterone and "identifying as" trans but who, for various reasons, didn't feel comfortable calling themselves either a man or a boy.

Like moi, it’s the cute form of “be” and is pronounced bwah. Haven’t you heard the famous Beatles song Let it Bwah?
British slang innit.
Obviously made its way across the pond and become offensive along the way.

I think boi is a submissive bottom
She likes your attention but doesn’t like you. Move along and get back to work
Never heard of it meaning gay or otherwise LGBT. Sometimes I think it’s used to phonetically signify a blaccent (black accent). Otherwise, it’s fallout from “mid 2010s meme culture” and people don’t really know why they say it or what it means just that “it’s funny”.
By “it’s funny” I mean that they saw it in a context in the internet where they were told to think it is funny
