Etymology: Bugger \Bug"ger\, noun. [French expression bougre, from Late Latin expression Bulgarus, Bulgarian, and also heretic; because the inhabitants of Bulgaria were infected with heresy. Those guilty of the crime of buggery were called heretics, because in the eyes of their adversaries there was nothing more heinous than heresy, and it was therefore thought that the origin of such vice could only be owing to heretics.].
