    The first I heard it being used regularly was in the gay scene.

    No it is impossible for straight people to say "shady" - if they somehow manage to force the word out they immediately turn homosexual; if they only get the first syllable out they become bisexual.

    That's not what I meant. I wasn't asking if they were capable of using the word. I was wondering if it's something they say.

    My sister and I say it all the time, and she`s straight. As far as I knew, it`s a common word. At least I`ve read it enough times and heard it said in movies several times. So, I am surprised to hear that it`s used a lot in the gay scene.

    Nope, the slang is "sketch" or "sketchy" in my region.

    As in, "Watch out if you go to that club, it's in a sketch part of town."

    ^ Yeah, I hear sketchy more than shady, but they have pretty much the same meaning. I say sketchy more.

    Sure. It's not a gay word.
