Examples

“2003: “Jesse James Jensen”, alt.politics (Google group): Liberal Bigots Will Call Her a “House Nigger”, the 3ʳᵈ day of November at 9:59pm We have a lot of wars to keep track of at the moment, but I’m pretty sure I would have remembered one against an out-moded Victorian-ethosed semi-religious woodland-based activity group. But you probably want to keep the Boy Scouts homo-free. As a private organization, it is their right to keep out the queers, but I don’t know why they’d want to; it was pretty common knowledge in my school that those outfits they had to wear were pretty gay.”
“We would argue that the relative positioning of differentially ‘ethosed’ schools is more concerned with product identity in the educational market place than with the redistribution of access to the structure of educational opportunities.”
