[N. Theknow]

One thing that rankles me, though, and no offense meant to the author of the article, but the term “gay” is also a word used hide the negative connotations inherent in homosexuality. I avoid using “gay” when noting homosexuals, or their leftist agenda, for the same reason the author uses lefties instead of liberals.

Same here.

The word "gay" is constantly used by true homophobes who cannot stand the word homosexual.

Or admit they are homosexuals.

To paraphrase: "Homosexuals, to thine ownselves be liars."

The word "gay" is constantly used by true homophobes who cannot stand the word homosexual.

The word "gay" is a politically correct attempt at covering abhorrent, disgusting behavior.

I'm old school and just call them queers. 'Cause they are.
