Kiki (social gathering)
"Kiki" (alternately kiking or a ki) is a term which grew out of Black American gay social culture, and is loosely defined as a gathering of friends for the purpose of gossiping and chit-chat, and later made more widely known in the song "Let's Have a Kiki" by the Scissor Sisters.[1][2][3]
