Obesiant

Here we are again with another obscure word I just had to know the meaning of! I was reading an article from the "Daily Mail" British newspaper describing the winner of a competition.

The guy who won just happened to be a cross-dresser and the paragraph had the word "obesiant" which I'm intrigued to know it's meaning. It's the word he use to win the Competition.

See also the British newspaper "The Independent" write-up.



OBESIANT -

1. A gesture or movement of the body, such as a curtsy, that expresses deference or homage.
