OMG! That is so gay!!!! (or why I wont't jokingly use that slur ever again)

This all came about over Facebook. One of my friends broke up with a guy.....her friends immediately started posting "he's gay."

You know what? *He* isn't gay.

Gay means that one is predisposed to love a person of the same sex.

It isn't a joke.

I don't care if other people "get it." I don't give a flying rats ass.

I'll never joke about it again, and will feel forever stupid that I did in the first place.

1. What I find fascinating is that the right equates love with sex

and they are so afraid of sex

I think they are afraid of love

2. They are damn sure afraid of what is not "good right and normal" in their

little tiny square inch.

Whatever. I don't want anything to do with it anymore.

3. Thank you. Also it suggests that "gay" is bad to be. Which it isn't. nt

6. Right. That's the point. It's not funny. Just like the "N" word wasn't

funny anymore.

Really, it's time to grow up.

I don't know why I didn't get such a clear picture until tonight. I am embarrassed to death...but, there it is.

8. I have to admit

I use retarded, in a self deprecating way. It is the one slur I think I've really ever used. It feels different the way I use it, though it probably doesn't to someone with a challenged child or loved one. I'm working on it.
