    Default "That's gay"

    I don't know why but for some reason I hate that term. People use gay to replace words like, uncool, stupid, ugly, etc. The list really goes on.



    But it bothers me because it's aiming towards gay people. Why can't people go, "That's so straight"? Seriously, I have never seen someone say that in my lifetime, well the life that actually counted. It shouldn't bother me but it makes me think the world is so narrow minded.



    I blame straight people, seriously.



    Does it bother you? Explain and enlighten me why or why not.

    I don't get offended, but I find it childish, immature, and ignorant.

    I won't deny it. I've said it a couple of times without realizing it.

    QFT, but since it's socially acceptable and no-one really gives too much of a damn about it since the word gay didn't even originally mean homosexual I can't say I have a problem with saying it. The way I see it the meaning of words evolve and change.
