In British slang, a mincer is a derogatory term for an effeminate gay man — derived from 'mince' (to walk with small, affected steps, associated with stereotypically effeminate movement). In its neutral sense it refers to a kitchen appliance for grinding meat. The derogatory slang sense is offensive and homophobic in register.
The kitchen mincer was buried at the back of a cupboard and hadn't been used in years.
