ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО DOUGHFACE
слабохарактерный человек
Термин doughface первоначально относился к реальной маске из теста, но пришел к употреблению в пренебрежительном контексте для кого-то, особенно для политика, который воспринимается как гибкий и формуемый. В 1847 году словарь Вебстера доказывался как «готовность к тому, чтобы его возглавлял один из сильных умов и воли». В годы, предшествовавшие американской гражданской войне, «тесто» использовалось для описания северян, которые предпочитали позицию Юга в политических спорах. Как правило, это применялось к северному демократу, который чаще ассоциировался с южными демократами, чем с большинством северных демократов.
