GM 0 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Similar to a recent episode of South Park where the kids are calling a biker gang a "bunch of fags" for makin too much noise and the bikers think they are calling them homosexuals. When in fact it's just another way for them to call someone stupid. Link to comment
yamahacrasher 0 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Stupid/unintelligent people use "gay" when it's not appropriate. I can't stand those people in the videos. Immature. Link to comment
digitalcat 0 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share gay means happy doesn't it... damn it give us back our word!!! wikki The term gay was originally used, until well into the mid-20th century, primarily to refer to feelings of being "carefree", "happy", or "bright and showy"; it had also come to acquire some connotations of "immorality" as early as 1637.[1] The term later began to be used in reference to homosexuality, in particular, from the early 20th century, a usage that may have dated prior to the 19th century.[1] In modern English, gay has come to be used as an adjective, and occasionally as a noun, that refers to the people, practices, and culture associated with homosexuality. By the end of the 20th century the word gay was recommended by major style guides to describe people attracted to members of the same sex.[2][3] At about the same time, a new, pejorative use became prevalent in some parts of the world. In the Anglosphere, this connotation, among younger generations of speakers, has a derisive meaning equivalent to rubbish or stupid (as in "That's so gay."). In this use the word does not mean "homosexual", so that it can be used, for example, of an inanimate object or abstract concept of which one disapproves, but the extent to which it still retains connotations of homosexuality has been debated.
