schoolmarmitude

noun. Look deep into the soul or wardrobe of a schoolmarmish sort, and this ye shall find.

Real citation: "There is inevitably Paul Rodriguez -- inevitable when Cheech Marin isn't available -- as a high school coach who liberates Leticia from schoolmarmitude."
(David Elliot, "Waste of a beauty," Aug 23, 2001, http://entertainment.signonsandiego.com/profile/185822/?p=1)

Made-up citation: "There's a fine line between schoolmarmitude and nunitude, and it's a line you should avoid like a hot vat of ebola."
