Most of you that know me know that I generally won't use the word 'gay ' inappropriately. In fact, often someone will say something like "oh that's gay" and I'll respond back with a reply implying a literal interpretation of what they said. For example I might say: "I don't understand why you associate taking premium gasoline with being sexually attracted to those of the same gender" and usually the people who are immature enough to say "that's gay" also are not quick enough to understand what I meant...

But anyway, in college someone said to me on direct connect, as long as he spells it "ghey" it's okay because then it's simply a new word. I accepted that and often defended people IRL by saying things like "He didn't mean gay he meant ghey so it's ok," but I haven't tested this justification in a professional setting yet.

However, I've thought of a new justification. When someone says "that's gay" regarding something that obviously isn't sexual, they are simply using a Homophone where gay doesn't mean homosexual but rather what we take it to mean colloquially (ironically it has the word homo in it). So gay away.

tthe homosexual community are the first ones to actually hijack the word gay. originally it meant happy, and joyful. now it means homosexual. i don't see why there is any reason to oppose it from turning into a more cleaner word than homosexual.

i'll use the word gay profusely in defense of this stance.

i say "that's gay" sometimes. i have a friend who's gay and he really doesn't care. i don't mean to insult gays or anything, i support them, i just say the word gay.

maybe ill go along with the fatchicks instead of gay, lol.
