[Gays] Do you get offended..

[drama]

I guess some gay people could be offended by that

The reason people use gay as an insult, is because their using it to referee to something bad, i.e. "That's so gay!". So their not saying something has a sexuality, their saying "That's so stupid" or "That's so ****".

So if a gay person thinks straight activity is disgusting, then they could be insulted by it?

don't get many heterophobes though

I'm not gay, but I don't see how you can use the word gay as an insult.

Put it this way:
If you call someone gay, there's 2 ways it can be taken. One is that, you are gay, so how can it be an insult because its a factual statement. The other was is it's not true, so if it's not true, how can it be an insult?

So? Doesn't matter if it's not true it's still an insult.

lol I try to watch when I say "that's well gay" or something on this forum as I know gay people will read the post LOL.

[Sameer!]

No one really says those to me, sometimes my mates say it to me but I know they're only kidding.

In my opinion Gay people shouldnt whine and should just be happy that the government allows them to live the unhealthy life they are living :rolleyes:

I have a gay friend and he uses it more than anyone I know...

Infact he has called his boyfriend a 'cigarette' before so I guess it depends on the pragmatics really.

[Scribbles-.]
