掩护, 幌子
a person used as a date or partner to hide someone's sexual orientation
In LGBTQIA+ slang, a beard is a person who serves as a date, partner, or spouse to someone who is hiding their sexual orientation, often to avoid suspicion or social stigma. The term has been in use since at least the mid-20th century and is most commonly associated with closeted gay men dating women to appear heterosexual, though it can apply to any gender combination. While sometimes used humorously, it also reflects the pressures of heteronormativity and the lengths people may go to protect their privacy or safety.
