Why the [sic] in the title? Because "gay" is a faux word with a faux meaning. The Phila. Church screens out men who have the orientation to be sexually attracted to men.
"Gay" is a modern word used to describe sick empty men who keep pretending that sex with other men is the key to happiness - and that they are indeed happy. If orgasms were the key to happiness there would be a hell of a lot more sex going on - and a hell of a lot more outwardly happy people. The word "gay" masks the reality that campy slutty effeminate bubbly males are actually like all sluts: miserable.
You are so right! I had a friend who was a newspaper editor and was always needing to find short words for headlines. However, he absolutely refused to use the word gay and used "homosexual" instead. He said that homosexuals had taken a perfectly good word and had destroyed it. We need more editors like him!
