Texas has been called a “land of steers and queers.” Sometimes, “beers” is added to that.
 
The “steers and queers” chant has long been a popular Southern Methodist University putdown of the University of Texas Longhorns. “Steers and queers” was spoken by characters in the movies An Officer and a Gentleman (1982) and Full Metal Jacket (1987).

Steers and queers.         
Which one are you, boy?       
I don’t see no horns.
You must be a queer.
           
No, sir.
