7.

Still it's lovely they get syndromes now to excuse the character shortfalls we used to just put up with and do all we could to hide from other people.

I've not heard anyone be called a Flid in aaages. Also Joey Deacon was a legend! For ALL the wrong reasons in my childhood eyes though.

I have seen 4 turn from gay to ghey over the years so as not to offend homosexuals. There is something highly amusing about fine tuning an insult to reduce offence.

In the 80s I remember the word "gay" being used to describe anything that was rubbish, lame, or girlie. More recently, I have seen a move away from using the word spelled "gay" to spelling it "ghey". I've even heard people trying to pronounce it slightly differently. When I've asked why the change, the most common answer I get is that "gay" is now more accepted to describe homosexuals than it used to be and that "ghey" should be used to describe things that are rubbish or lame. Otherwise the insinuation is that being homosexual is itself rubbish or lame.

Hence my point that what started off as an insult has been altered to prevent insulting people it was not initially targeted at. Which I find quite funny.

Also, I should point out that explaining that was quite difficult without using the word "lame" - another one which surely fits the bill just like "gay" does. Personally, I may start demanding that people cease using the word gay to describe someone's sexuality and return it to its original meaning of happiness. :?

People should stop getting so worked up about words.


Tell me about it. The words have never and will never be the problem, it is the feeling and intent behind them that is the problem.
