# i'd be more apt to give you a click if you hadn't used the word 'gay' as a pejorative.
i realise you aren't being nasty, but making the equivalence of gay=bad is ignorant.

# I think you will find that the word "gay" is a homograph.
Jus like bow, contract, lead, house etc.

I have several gay freinds that will back me up on this on too;)

Edit: and there are some modern examples such as: Cool, bad, fat, sick, wicked etc.
/not ignorant, just down with the modern lingo;)

# well, that's why i qualified when i said i knew you weren't being nasty.
it's not you i'm worried about - it's the odd mothbreather i've seen (yes, even on here) who gets his bigoted ideals reinforced by the equivalence, even though that's not what you intended. as for fat/phat, i am aware of more than a few overweight people who cringed when that particular descriptor was in vogue.

no worries - i'm not delicate, but i imagine there are a few posters and lurkers who are. same reason i don't really like the occasional bit of racism or misogyny that pops up here, despite being mostly white and wholly (checks pants) male.

# Thanks for understanding my intentions:)
But I have now fallen into a minority group as I have given up the booze.
This makes me a white, hetrosexual male who does not drink.

I WANT RIGHTS TOO!

ooh, your teeth look nice BTW.

# *grins, blinds the neighbours*
i knew you were sensible - most b3tans are, though i have run into the odd dunderhead here. no drinking? for how long, and how much longer?

# 6 days now. (early days)
with at least 6 months off.

Before this break I could count the amount of days I had not had a drink on 2 hands over the previous 7 years. I always enjoyed drinking, but it was getting out of control and I wanted to stop.
So I did.
Edit: I was diving further into a bottle every time I was stressed and with a business and high financial commitments one stresses alot.

# i have no policy against drinking, but i rarely do.
/adult child of two alcoholic parents blog.

edit: good plan. recognising the problem while in the midst of it is difficult.

# unfortanatly there seems to be little way to stop that phrasing.
it bothers me, too. i get to hear every asshole at my school say the same stupid things.

of course im not helping, the majority of the files on my computer have the word 'gay' some where in them.

# a new word will occupy the tiny minds eventually.
the subversion of the pejorative is fun, though. you or me or other sensible people know that, especially here on the gayshift.
