lemonthunder2 I tend to embrace any slag term for being homemosexual that comes along. I got to the point were i was telling my GF to refer to me as a dyke (or her dyke, or that naaasty dyke, whatever the mood may be) I duno, i never let words have much of a power over me. I walk through the halls and here the word dyke, or f**, or queer shouted at me (from behind, damn cowards) and tend to respond with a simple "yeah, and?" or "damn right" or just a simple backwards middle finger (my fave insult, its so simple, yet it gets the job done!) I just choose to redefine what derogatory or not. So yeah, now being called a dyke in school kind of gives me a nice...tingly feeling... *nods her head* Mhmm... Words are onyl as strong as you make them. I can't say I hate it when people say that because I believe I say it every now and then. *shrug* It's just a word.

Meriadoc321 aNa mArGaRiTa_13 Meriadoc321 Eh... personally it doesn't bother me. It's such a widespread thing, so it's not like I could change it if I wanted to... However, I don't really feel like it's an issue. It's a word... big deal... I can call them a jackass, but it really doesn't change who they are, and it definitely doesn't change what a donkey is XD So if you get my drift... it's not causing problems for me, or any gay person for that matter, so why make it an issue? it's not really an issue..they just wanna say their opinions..really, i guess i shouldn't have started this conversation No no, the thread was ok XD I perhaps worded the end wrong. My point was, I just feel it's not that important to me. Eh, sorry for being a little offensive sweatdrop Oh well, I guess I took it the wrong way..my bads

I tell people when they say it that they really should say so and that if they wanted to insult somebody/something, do it with a degrading term, not one like 'Gay.' Or just not to insult it at all. Ex. I was exited about the fact that another state (California) had accepted Gay Marriage and I was telling my brother, and he snickered and said, "No wonder, look at the Governer!" And so I lectured him about it for a while because he knows that I don't like it when he says crap like that...

Yes. I know. It gets so annoying when they do that. I know it's being hypocritical, but if I ever say something is weird, I say straight. You know, if they're going to be mean to us, then we have every right to be mean to them.

You know, if they're going to be mean to us, then we have every right to be mean to them. I make up strange things, like for something bad, I say "that suxxors!" or "that is teh crap!" or "that's so jewish!" "that's so mormon!" that's so [insert race of most people in the room]" everybody knows I'm joking, though so I get away with it! biggrin
