I hate seeing people use that word on such a public site. There is no need for hate words like this and so I've decided to give you a lesson on the origin of the word.
Faggot means a bundle of wood which they would use to burn people who were considered witches and in these times they would also burn homosexual people however the burning was supposed to cleanse their soul which they didn't feel the homosexual people deserved so they would throw them down into the logs to burn so that their souls would not be freed.
I'm sorry to everyone with same-sex sexual orientation that is offended, or to people who just find it offensive in general.
I only mean in the eccentric, kind of girlie stereotype you see so often. I also thought it would be funny to trick people into thinking this was a really emo blog where I rant like some 13 year old upset with his brother.

k thats great. thats not the meaning he meant. you realize many words have multiple meanings, right?
Just like if I call someone a bitch, I don't mean they are a female dog. If I call someone an asshole, I don't mean they are some combination of rectum and anus. If I call someone a douche, I don't mean they are a system designed to clense a vagina. If I call someone a faggot, I don't mean they are homosexual.

Yes but the word is attached to that meaning I'm sure you don't walk around saying N***** so why should people be allowed to use a word that is attached to an entire sexuality it's not fair nor is it just how would you like it the term "canadian" was a way of saying a stupid person or a wimp and everywhere you went you would see people typing that.
You wouldn't quite simply put and the examples you gave are bogus
Bitch - Dogs don't know what it means so it can't offend them. Asshole - Not a living being. (Yes there is scientific evidence that you don't always choose to be gay) Douche - An inanimate object Faggot - Is offensive to an entire sexuality and is extremely offensive, I have 3 cousins who are homosexual and I find that language like this is completely unacceptable and to have a mod embrace it is a slap in the face.

Alright, you can rise above it or be holier than thou and let everything get under your skin. His comment is not degrading to anyone in any way as I've already explained. If you choose to interpret it in that way, that's fine. I fully endorse his thread's title.

However the thread title is degrading to homosexual people everywhere because by fag he means a loser or a wimp and guess why the word fag is connected to that.

The oft-heard statement that male homosexuals were called faggots in reference to their being burned at the stake is an etymological urban legend. Burning was sometimes a punishment meted out to homosexuals in Christian Europe (on the suggestion of the Biblical fate of Sodom and Gomorah), but in England, where parliament had made homosexuality a capital offense in 1533, hanging was the method prescribed. Any use of faggot in connection with public executions had long become an English historical obscurity by the time the word began to be used for "male homosexual" in 20th century American slang, whereas the contemptuous slang word for "woman" (and the other possible sources or influences listed here) was in active use.

You're right, because that is what I connect the word fag to; Someone who is being effeminate. I don't connect it to sexual orientation at all. Like right now, you're being a huge fag about this.
Apparently you do connect the two meanings, and really that's your issue not mine.
