It is profoundly un-manly if I can't pronounce it, or if I have to make funny mouth shapes while saying it.

I grew up eating quiche, so I just think of it as normal.

Yeah, but those are fun to say. Quiche just sounds insidious.

I think it's the "q" sound.

I've never heard anyone call quiche effete. In fact it seems to be reasonably popular in most urban settings whenever one ventures into a decent cafe or French restaurant.

Never eaten this here "keesh" stuff.
"Manly Breakfast Pie" is great though!
