First of all, i'm sure this has been done a million times before, but seeing as how the search engine won't accept anything 3 letters or less and the word "gay" contains 3 letters.......well.....you get the picture
I initially wanted to make this a reply to someone posting a gif that finished triumphantly with a "you're GAY" message, but then realized it might be interesting to have a thread dedicated to it.
so.....here goes......
I really hate the whole "That's so gay" or "You're so gay" thing
And so that i don't look like a hypocrite, i admit to using it quite often actually as a means of insult or ridicule. It just comes naturally to be honest. I can only do so much as to blame three things:
1. Society, everybody's escape goat. Being gay is made out to sound like a disease, or something horrible, or just "freaky", and out of the ordinary.
2. Human nature for naturally associating out of the ordinary things to bad things, giving anything out of the ordinary a bad connotation from the get-go.
3. Myself, for not being able to go past society's influence on me, as well as my own human nature.
What are your thoughts on the "You're so GAY" thing?
Usually when someone says, "Oh, that's so gay!", I will respond with something like, "Yes, because that particular chair is having sexual intercourse with another chair of the same gender."

I agree...I can't stand the moronic laughter that follows after it...they're is nothing wrong with being gay, in either sense, and it's ridiculous to use it as an insult..
Was thinking of someone in my Chemistry class who made a comment about a certain type of chair being 'gay' (read: uncomfortable or something). That was my response.

People would have been like, "Oh, God, what a moron." By saying what I did, everyone laughed and the kid turned bright red. I, however, managed to retain a straight (non-gay ) face during it all.

I talk about chairs toooo...I thought everybody had names for t them,..We're always in um.....But I never use the word and don't know anyone who does......Must be a succumbing to peer pressure thing.....
My personal belief is that a lot of people are insecure and afraid of being called gay, and it makes them feel less gay to call other things gay... I say it out of habit myself, but I've been trying to stop. Usually I end up saying "retarded" instead.
