    The term "bronco" or "bronc" was used to refer to "a young gay man, or someone new to the gay community" from the 1930s onward in the USA[1].

    It's important to note that LGBTQ+ slang and terminology has evolved significantly over time, and many historical terms are now considered outdated or offensive. This particular slang usage of "bronco" appears to be a relatively obscure historical term, and is not in common use today. As with many slang terms, its usage was likely limited to certain subcultures or regions.
