Plurale tantum sense. Seems redundant to {{plural of|big boy}}

- How are physical size and influence the same, or even close in meaning? DCDuring TALK 10:04, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
- To put it another way, is this definition right, and right to be here, not under big boy? Mglovesfun (talk) 10:07, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
- I am not familiar with the sense now presented as p.t. being used in the singular. It is certainly not close to the typical relative frequency of a singular. In my experience, the idiomatic "big boy" (close to "bad boy") is used in the plural normally, as the entry suggests. DCDuring TALK 11:16, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:22, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
Apparently resolved. - -sche 19:00, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
