Now wait just a minute. When did the word gay become a derogatory remark? I thought gay people wanted to be called gay. If you
are calling someone who's not gay gay, then I can see it as derogatory, but I thought it was proper to call gay people gay. Am I wrong? Did I miss something? Saintfan, you live in, or near San Francisco. Don't they celebrate Gay Pride day out there? (I'm not incinuating that you're an expert by the way) Is that derogatory? If so, I say that celebration needs to end immediately. Maybe I'm seeing this whole thing all wrong. One thing I do know, I've already spent way too much time on the subject than I really wanted to spend.
