    For example if I said 'this lesson is gay' basically this lesson sucks. I don't know how the slang word of gay originated tho :p

    If he homo-sexual perso find's it "Offensive" they'll call you homophobic, whether calling them gay or not. I've seen it before.

    Well. Like a few people have said, I think it can be in certain circumstances.

    For instance, if you refer to 'something' being gay, like.. a lesson, or a book or something, lol, then I don't really think so, but if you use it in an argument or specifically to insult someone, then yes!

    It all depends on how you're using it.

    I don't think its homophobic. I think in primary school when everyone was constantly like 'stop being so gay' it was meant in a homophobic way, but now it just means stop being so stupid/sad or whatever.
    I don't care if it hurts
    I want to have control
    I want a perfect body
    I want a perfect soul
