I'll not name, but here are people using word 'gay', to

have fun from others, but I think it is quite unfair.



Sexual orientation is personal thing and someone

can feel accused. Have fun, but talk moral.



no comment,

As an aside.....I suppose another example of "reclaiming the tools of the opressors" would be the use of the pink triangle..

wonderloey..gay could be more accuratly interpreted to mean "party animal", back in the day.

de·rog·a·to·ry

tending to lessen the merit or reputation of a person or thing; disparaging; depreciatory: a derogatory remark

see, the issue here is a bit of culture clash.

voi - you think the word 'gay' is derogatory, because of your background (culture)

noi - we think that its not a derogatory word, its just another adjective. we dont care if straight peaple say it, i dont care if drunk [censored] rednecks say it.

they can say what they like, and so can i.

big applause for neon shaolin, NYC why dont you re-read his posts?

personaly im going off the word, all this talk is making it lame, its just a buzzword you see, i will say something else. its broken in a rash and it will die down again, you cant stop language, you can only ride it.

bill hicks never gave a F U C K about who he offended, and you cant say he was bad for the world or the people...

unless your really straight smile

so lighten up. ruggsniffers wink ****attention this was a friendly jibe***** wink

Ideally I don't want tolerance and acceptance of my sexuality, these are things that you actively have to do. It implies that secretly it still disturbs you. I'd rather it just be invisible. Nobody tolerates and accepts my blue eyes. Nor does anyone define me by them....





Thankyou for articulating a view that i've held dear for a long time.

Not entirely unrelated to Chrono's two-posts-ago, when I trail off in the middle of a sentence to watch a stunning pair of boobies go by for example, my housemate is liable to roll his eyes and say something like "you're such a breeder."

Great word, that biggrin

If I were in a position to use breeder as a mock-insult, somehow I don't think I'd think twice about it like I do with gay.

Does this make me a hypocrite?
Discuss (or, more probably, not).



No, it just shows you are caring and considerate to others. Please stop that right now...

I think folks like Bill Hicks very carefully selected and focused opon who they offended. That's what made him funny.

I totally see where Mr. NYC is coming from. Although gay adults may happy with the idea that they're reclaiming the tools of the oppressors, Educators, on the other hand are dead set against the use of gay as an insult in a school envirnment.

If you're interested, research GALE ( gay and lesbian educators ) for their take on this issue, and how it relates the ideals of social acceptance amongst the school aged.

Keep gay youth suicide statistics in mind...

Canadian's easy, just read the words between the "eh's", eh?

I was under the impression they were bigger,,,well bigger than local anyways. You guys don't have an equivalent in your home state's ? shires ?

As an issue, this only seems to resonate with people in the educational field as part of an anyi-bullying strategy. They'd know what they're talking about when it comes to bullying, seeing as how they deal with it frequently. and most kids seem to grow out of using it.

That's not to imply that adults using it are immature, but just have different reasons for wanting to do so.

Er Spanner, both links are the same!

Actually I would've thought it would've been more detestable for Chris Moyles to use it. I find his entire existance offensive and the fact that he's the voice that people wake up to in the morning completely unfathomable tongue

Sneaky - Cheers...

But I have to have to admit that I know that Chris Moyles does have an out gay member in his On-Air Entourage so for all I know it could just be exactly what we've been arguing for on this very thread.

Still don't like Chris Moyles though...

I don't have any gay friends (well there is you Dave smile) and my straight friends say "that’s gay" (no not me wink) all the time. They don’t mean it to be insulting in any shape or form but I must admit I don't like it when it’s used in that context. I find it slightly insulting and I make a point to them when they do say it. To be perfectly honest, I think it’s a little childish and feel it’s a word you expect to hear on the play ground. Now don't get me wrong, if someone calls me gay I find it quite funny and if you going to insult me, insult me properly for gods sake lol. Calling me gay is quite possible one of the most inoffensive words you can say to me. But when it’s used in a way of basically calling something rubbish, it’s a slightly different story.

Colourful but not very bright.

I think the reason people here use it in this context is to deliberately act childish (and if you read most of the posts in this thread the people who use it are more often than not gay themselves.
