This stinks! Must be GAY!

[El Duderino]

You are all Gay, Oh i'm sure you are all so offended.

Duderino, it's the whole principle of using a name of a certain group of people offensively, as if that name was meant to be derogatory in the first place. I've dealt with discrimination my entire life and to see someone using a word that shouldn't be used in a derogatory sense is quite annoying. It just shows ignorance at its pinnacle and it will only get worse with time. America's supposed to be a country where you're allowed to be who you are without being criticized, made fun of, etc. The usage of terms used to describe groups of people in derogatory ways only degrades them. I'm sure you would react in the same fassion if everyone around you started using the n word to describe all black people and also things that they disliked. This doesn't go for just "gay", but for all other derogatory terms for groups of people.

I do say it, but I don't mean it I have nothing against gay people it's just habit I guess.

I think saying nigger as an insult word is far worse, showing how people, even now, are actively racist.

[Carnage]

i use it sometimes but i have nothing against gay people. Just comes out society poisoned me.

P.s. poisoned looks weird I liked spelling it wrong

I think using the adjective "stupid" is offensive to stupid people, and should be whined about at once.

Why not?
You make the thread and we will make spam!

It's regular speak where I am. Nobody takes notice, because we know it just means that whatever situation is not good. The word has different meanings, and we're using one of them. It's like "Yew" and "You", they mean completely different things.

[SomethingBig]

I think what is stupid is completely subjective. One person may find another smart, while another might find that same person to be stupid. If you can consider someone stupid, but they will always hold a shred of intelligence and someone will always think of them as being smart.

Same round here I don't use it myself, but my siblings and their friends do, and I couldn't care less about it

Working in the land of derrogatory language and rough humor I hear the word gay a lot. Also I work with black people and hear the word "N" a lot. I prefer not to use either of them. Gay because being a skinny, RPG playing, "freak/punk" in my school, I was called gay a lot and would never want to force that on anyone else. "N" because I'm just in general a nice person, it takes a lot for me to be mean so I tend to avoid derrogatory things.

[escobert]

I only use the n word to my black freinds and only joking and they know this becasue they said to me that they don't care if I use it to them since they say it every other word. I would never say it out of hate or anyother way but just with them.

What if they are from Niger?

What if they are from Niger?

Then they would be Nigerians.

I guess I can see how it's derogatory and stuff, but most people who say it don't mean it in that sense. It's become a common word to use in describing something that someone doesn't like. Words like dumb also used to be referring to people with disabilities (I think dumb means someone who can't talk), but now it's used to describe things that people don't like, just like gay. I'm sure there are a lot of words like that. I say gay to describe stuff that I don't like a lot... I don't have anything against them, but it's just become a common usage of the word.
