We're all very gay here!
I do say bummer a fair but in reference to my gay friends but not in a hateful way, even they don't mind.
I think it's acceptable to say anything provided you don't intend to offend anyone.
I don't often call something gay unless it's actually gay "Dude, you're drinking lager? Thats so gay"
It must really suck (lol) to be black AND gay in this thread
Ooooh I can see that chip growing on your shoulder... hope it doesn't hurt too much.
I just find it humorous that I'm very for political correctness when the pros outweigh the cons yet when I say 'lol you look like a gay in that hat' to my future children this might bring cries that I'm an ignorant idiot.
Theres no chip on my shoulder, I'm straight, white and male, I won the genetics lottery when it comes to societal standing. My only concern is that some of the homophobic and racist comments on this forum are going to lead to an organization like
http://www.stonewall.org.uk/
who obliterated that gay bashing BnB couple, having a field day. That and some human decency to the gay and black members of the forum that extends beyond
"Ahhh its only a bit of banter ain't it?!"
It won't be long until its socially unacceptable to bash gays the same way its unacceptable to bash "*******" and "Pakis", (which iirc is not allowed) so if I can bring just a tiny amount of people in line with what is demonstrably doing harm to people I'm happy to effort post slightly, even in GD, and if I get people replying with
"Banter, stop being a wimp, never did me any harm!"
which is the usual reply from people who either can't comprehend or chose to not to lest it break their privileged world view thats fine, I'm used to it.

I'm actually going to argue that it isn't as bad, bear with meIt won't be long until its socially unacceptable to bash gays the same way its unacceptable to bash "*******" and "Pakis", (which iirc is not allowed)
It won't be long until its socially unacceptable
if I can bring just a tiny amount of people in line I'd be a dictator and should be shot
We should not use jew
Has anyone stopped to consider why things become 'socially unacceptable' and where it is all going to end?
