Which brings us in a big fat flabby arc, gay =/= homosexuality any more so much as gay = being shit. And is that right? Since the whole gay = being shit definition stemmed from the fact that being gay used to = being shit.
You're trying to link this back to my 'retard' theory of a few pages back, right? Not going to happen; gay is still a common and socially acceptable word for homosexual men (and, to some extent, women too). Thus we have every right as a group to object to the derogatory usage.


Personally, I've been trying to reclaim the word to its original definition of 'happy'. Not much success so far.
