“fags”
Maybe next you could say “Hymie” or “Mick”.
If you believe Obama is a federalist, I recommend you consult a dictionary or better yet a thesaurus. And while you’re in there, try to find a more unique way to express yourself, a way that you can say your point without publicly revealing your bigotry.
You are absolutely brainwashed. “Hymie” and “Mick” refer to a persons nationality and genetic parents. “Fag” describes a person’s sexual behavior. It ain’t the same.
Sorry. If using the word ‘fag’ offends you and your friends, then .... then...
Whatever.
The point is, you stated that GOProud and their ilk are federalists and our friends. And my contempt and disgust at you overcame me and I reached for the most offensive reply I could find without personally attacking you for what you are saying on this forum.
Faggots
Main article: Faggots (novel)
In 1978 Kramer delivered the final of four drafts of a novel that he wrote about the fast lifestyle of gay men of Fire Island and Manhattan. In Faggots, the primary character was modeled on himself, a man who is unable to find love while encountering the drugs and emotionless sex in the trendy bars and discos.[11] He stated his inspiration for the novel: "I wanted to be in love. Almost everybody I knew felt the same way. I think most people, at some level, wanted what I was looking for, whether they pooh-poohed it or said that we can't live like the straight people or whatever excuses they gave."[12] Kramer researched the book, talking to many men, and visiting various establishments. As he interviewed people, he heard a common question: "Are you writing a negative book? Are you going to make it positive? ... I began to think, 'My God, people must really be conflicted about the lives they're leading.' And that was true. I think people were guilty about all the promiscuity and all the partying."[12] The book was called Faggots.
The novel caused an uproar in the community it portrayed; it was taken off the shelves of the Oscar Wilde Memorial Bookstore—New York's only gay bookstore, and Kramer was banned from the grocery store near his home on Fire Island.[1] Reviewers found it difficult to believe that Kramer's accounts of gay relationships were accurate; both the gay and mainstream press panned the book.[13] On the reception of the novel Kramer says, "The straight world thought I was repulsive, and the gay world treated me like a traitor. People would literally turn their back when I walked by. You know what my real crime was? I put the truth in writing. That's what I do: I have told the (expletive deleted)* truth to everyone I have ever met."[1] Faggots, however, became one of the best-selling gay novels of all time.[14]
