| Been gone a while. Full Member   Gender: Male Orientation: DragonPhoenixLightningAwesome Out Status: Out to everyone Location: Middlesbrough, North-east England Age: 20 Posts: 2,198 Join Date: Jun 2008 |  Why do people find gay offensive Shut up you gay.... ....okay then... and when people say something is gay. Why care? They're not saying it in a bad way. Like "Oh how gay is that lamp" Somehow, somepeople think it means. "gays are disgusting and should die" WTF... Some people really need to grow up and relise the world isn't all about their sexuality. I call things gay all the time. Doesn't mean im a hypocryte. I dont mean gay as in homosexual. .... Really pisses me off when people think no1 can say gay around them justy because they are... www.endofrant.com |

| Without me, it's just aweso Full Member   Gender: Male Orientation: Gay Out Status: A few people Location: Calgary Age: 25 Posts: 739 Join Date: Jun 2007 | Re: Why do people find gay offensive For as long as we still self-identify as "gay", using the term gay as a pejorative will be necessarily offensive. I am gay. That is what I call myself. And using gay to put someone/something down is insulting to me. Not to say I get bent out of shape when people use gay. I understand people rarely realize what they're saying, they're just using a common term, and I understand that. But that doesn't mean it's not offensive. |
