View Full Version : The word "Gay"

The word gay is way over used. Gay, *** and what ever else is being given a negative meaning. Well im not gay before you jump on me but so what if i was. We all make choices and there are own. My friend had called something gay and there was someone who was gay sitting right there he felt like shit afterwords. I think we all should stop saying it if we do and police are friends too. If someone says something is gay be like "ya its gay" "don't you mean its stupid". Then explain to them gay people are not stupid. I just think it would be a better world if even just the members here stop saying it.

I don't think most people are directly making fun of gay people when they use the word, it just becomes a habit that's hard to break. I know when I say it I'm not making fun of gay people, I see nothing wrong with being gay, it's just something that you hear so often growing up you just do it to.

I really agree with you. I have several friends who are homosexual. They are tortured for it. One of the best teachers I have ever met happened to like his own gender. He was a great person. And people were soooo rude to him. It's not right of people to use slurs like that. It would be like the word ******, or looking at something and saying, that's so Jewish. It's just NOT RIGHT. It pisses me off.:mad:

I really find it annoying when someone says "You're Gay" or "You're Lame"
It gets on mee nervesssss.
And also when people call others a "******". I believe that is just.....stupid.
\m/ TRENDWHORE FOR LIFE!
people will always be made fun and insulted because of something. so just get used to it. you fucking ******!

I don't make fun of gay people directly...they're doing their own thing regardless of my opinion...but if I think being gay is not right..in my own opinion...I think I can insult people that way if I want. Hey like, fifty years ago it was "****** Lover" and shit like that...it changes with the time...****** Lover isn't an insult anymore and I bet Gay won't be after a while.

I use it all the time and there's no way your going to stop me from doing so.
For example, I have the word "******" in my text below my name. And yesterday I called spongebob gay pants a ******.
I use it alot and I think we should be allowed to say whatever the fuck we want to say. It's a forum, who gives a shit.
afallenconcept, i think that you had a good idea and good intentions, but when the majority of the forum (and the mod) is just full of pricks and kids that think irony and sarcasm are the best things since sliced bread, it'll never work. i tried to say something similar in another forum, didn't work. keep trying.
i never call things gay.

When people say gay to someone they know is not a homosexual, they just mean that person is being dumb. Thats how I use it.

Personally, I think this thread was pointless. I say '***' and 'queer' all the time. I know it's wrong and some of my friends really hate it but I'm not going to stop using it anytime soon. The person that started this thread sounded pretty queer to me.

i like giving people who use homosexuality as an insult a hard time, because it's just entirely out of control. my friend actually said "that car's mad gay" so apparently the car has sex with other cars of it's own gender.
even when it's used to describe a person, if that person isn't gay, it's just pointless, it's like saying "you're asian" to someone who isn't asian, and if the person is gay, it's like saying "you're asian" to an asian. like seth said the insulter loses

I have a friend thats gay and she announces it and makes fun of herself all the time. She had a sticker on her shirt yesterday at warped that said "TheFag" (it was originally "TheFags" but she ripped the 's' off so it worked better). I don't know where the sticker came from, but she didnt care. Its all about how sensitive the person is. I think people today are really way to sensitive. Grow some fucking skin.
But I do try to avoid saying gay as an insult. I used to be kinda bad, but I've really toned it down.

i can see where you're coming from, but you're still wrong.
the word "gay" used to mean happy, and somehow it came to mean "homosexual" and well people don't like homosexuals so they started using it as an insult, being the equilivent of the word "stupid" so basically using the word "gay" meaning stupid, is like saying "homosexuals are stupid"
not to mention the fact that people use the word "***" in the same way, and don't tell me they mean ciggarette.
next you'll say "***" means "stupid" then "fairy" then "fruit" and so on, the fact is "gay" still means "homosexual" it's just used in a "homosexuals are stupid, so are you" fashion

half the time i dont even realize that i say 'thats so gay' i think its the same with the phrase 'oh my god' i had a friend....well not a friend, a girl i used to talk to, yell at me every time i said god because i wasnt supposed to use the lords name in vain or something. then one day i just got so pissed off about her pushing what she things onto me i told her off. i say, to each his own......most people dont say 'gay' to offend someone. they say it because thats what theyre used to saying.

i really dont try and limit anything that i say. ive learned that no matter what you do theres always one or two people who are gonna be offended by it. i say fuck everyone and do what makes you happy. im tired of trying to please everyone but myself.

i think the word gay could deffinate be used less to describe stuff we don't like. i think it could acceptably be used like the word queer is. in america queer is automatically linked to homosexuals however is commonly used in forign countries, europe, as odd or out of the ordinary (which gays are).

i always said "if you can make one person laugh without offending someone else, you're doing something wrong" but i have to say i disagree with you. (this has probably been said before, so i'll say it again) try walking around saying "******" or "gook" or "spick" instead of "gay." now, needlessly offensive humor is always cool, but it's just rediculous now.
and whoever said that aids remark, is a fucking moron, aids was not caused by homosexuals, it's a government induced virus used for population control.

Yea i tried to watch my use of the term "gay" in front of a friend who gets offended by it, and im suprised how often i used to say it. Also, Gay jokes are rampant throughout tv and movies.

regardless if that comment was intended to be read with sarcasm or not joe, i truly have a hard time believing that we can network off of sattelites we sent into space, we can land on another planet, we can build weapons powerful enough to destruct continents at a time, and yet we cannot find a cure for a common virus. government secrets. they're fascinating.

In my town, gay is a comment used all too often. People are constantly saying "That's gay" or "What, are you gay or something?" nonstop. It's pretty crazy how constantly we say gay in this town. I'm not going to lie and say I don't use it... I always use the term. I think it's bad though, and I probably should stop, but it's a part of my vocab now. It'll be hard getting out of it.

ok, first they blamed aids on gays, but gay sex has been around for millions of years, aids has been around since the reagan administration, then they said it was monkeys, because they have a similar virus, but bush's new advisor on aids, called aids a "homosexual epidemic" so i think we know how full of shit their "theories" are.
aids is the perfect virus, it attacks the immune system, "can't be cured" and is sexually transmitted.... sounds like population control to me.

I bet his advisor is a dumbass like Bush. That's why Bush probably picked him (if he did) 'cause they can relate.
Bush should be shot in the foot, stabbed in the eye and buried in a pit filled with fire ants.
But I've used queer for so long. Ever since I lived in good ol' London. I've always used queer as stupid but recently people seem to think I'm saying queer as in "gay". I use "gay" too. I'm a queer gay ******.
I find it funny that some people are saying things like "gay shouldn't be used to mean dumb." Well, that's obvious to anyone that knows that 'dumb' originally meant 'mute,' and only came to be a synonym for stupid because of assumptions about those who could not talk. Nonetheless, it is harmful to perpetuate stereotypes in such a casual fashion. I am a camp counselor, and the children call everything gay: trees, chicken fingers, even Kobe Bryant sexually assaulting a woman. While it may tear the negative connotations from the word, it is apparent that they are conscious of a exclusively hetero concept of masculinity.
Degregaytion
My ass is loose, your ass is tight
How can you say being gay isn't right?
A straight guys way to find some friends
You look like a ***, but that's where it ends
True, they're always at our shows, and still won't admit
That we have nice asses and huge fucking dicks
They wish they were gay, you know what I mean?
Straight boring losers, you de-gay our scene
I wish you would lick my ass and be queer with me
There's no good side to your hetero scene
Gays beat down for standing up
In your straight fave I'll bust a nut
Shit, you look like **** we know, except your not a queer
How about my dick in your tight, straight rear?
I guess it's your right to keep your ass tight
If you let me fuck you, you would go gay tonight
Don't fool yourself cause you don't fool me
It's not just gays you hate, it's everything you see
Gay, Bi, Dyke, Trans, whoever's in your way
What a boring life, never being gay!
You have nothing but hatred
Gay hatred

i agree,
i also think that this can best be compared to using the word retarded, lots of people use that word to describe something stupid, except that i dont think you would really call someone whos mentally handicapped retared because its rude. maybe its not the same thing but we could just stop using the word gay to describe homosexuals. then again its not just the word its the meaning beind it, ok heres an example calling someone fat is mean right so instead you could call them pleasently plump or maybe pudgy. but it still means they are overwieght so it has potential to offend either way.
