@Kasumeme
I think you're right that f*g used to mean something completely different, but then so does gay. It freaking means 'happy', how did it come to be a term for people who are attracted to the same gender? And then to being weak or feminine subsequently? The transfer of meaning in language is a complete free-for-all, but that's off topic.

It's just the fact that our society has corrupted these words because they can't stand someone being different or against what they believe the world should be that annoys me.

I dont understand why people say it at all
Even replacing it with a different word like "That's so stupid" is still wrong
What happened to the phrase "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all"?

Yes, yes, you all are accepted. Welcome to the family ouo
When people say/call me or my friends f*gs it really makes my blood boil and I especially hate it when people use it as an insult to someone. (Specifically ignorant straight guys to other ignorant straight guys.)

@SissyFox
The world has been tainted by a whole bunch of people who are closed minded and arrogant which is why it gets thrown around so much.

^*Has not understood*^


Anyway like I honestly don't mind the word gay being used as homosexual since it can imply that homosexuals are happy to have their relationships, but I was shocked by the general negativity of views on homosexuality when I went to this church conference my friend dragged me to.

It's just like calling someone a nerd as an insult. Ignorant people trying to seem cool to their friends, or just because society taught them to hate LGBT people.

ayyy now i can say my personal view on it

honestly it's p hard to offend me when it comes to homosexual slurs bc i actually grew up hearing them used as jokey terms before i even knew I was gay so like, the F word and 'X is so gay' doesnt affect me negatively at all bc I just can't take offence bc of how i grew up uwu;;

but my boyfriend hates the F word so i gotta start getting used to not bringing it up ever |D;

Twin & RelentlessPertinacity -
Accepted.
I feel a lot of it has to do with parenting honestly. Like all these kids grow up thinking that "gay is the wrong way" and all, eh.

When people say that's so gay, when I was younger it didn't really bother me but now that things have changed and that I have experienced a time in my life where I had that directed at me (When I was 12-Long story), it generally bothers me when people say that.

Username: Finhawk
Sexuality: Homosexual. Though sometimes I feel like I'm a homoromantic asexual. I'm still figuring stuff out and I'm in no hurry to put labels on myself, I'm just me and words are just words. In the end, all those fancy words and labels are too much of a hassle so I just go with "I'm gay" if someone asks.
Reason for joining: To be honest, I'm kinda of wary about this. As far as I've heard, these kind of 'clubs' don't usually end well in online message boards. I'm more than willing to give this a chance though and hopefully everything goes as planned.
