What’s Spanish for “gay giant”?

Its a common gay stereotype that was in vogue around 1969, unfortunately with Carson Kressley, Jack, Jay Manuel, Queer Eye, Cameron and Ms J on TV we still haven’t moved on from it

The record’s name is refernce to the way gay people were called “lilo”. I don’t know if that’s because the “lila” color (lilac in english) is often considered to be a gay or effeminate color. So “De un lila suave” could be interpreted as “a little gayish”.
The LP consists in a series of stories filled with “albures” (a mexican way to verbally insult somebody without using direct curse words or insults). Every story has a gay character in it. I don’t know exactly the date of this recordings but it has to be around 1969.
“Chaf y Queli” were the ones to tell and perform the stories. Both were the “Reyes del albur”. If you can understand what albures are and you can understand albures, you’ll be laughing like a maniac.
Here’s one track, you can find the rest on youtube.
