well gay doesnt just mean homosexual.

maybe when someone says "this thread is gay" what theyre really trying to say is "this thread is happy!" or "this thread is merry" or "this thread is lively" :P

have a gay christmas all

i hate how people take a perfectly legit word and try to turn it into something we should never say! lets take gay back as a positive word!
I am all for it man! Many of my freinds are trying to reclaim the word just as many black people have attempted reclaim the "n" word. there is such hidden homophobia among men. Most men wouldn't claim they are homophobic but call them a "fagot" or "gay" and see how they respond. Men feel the need to publicaly display their heterosexuality to distance themsleves from the gay label. This is why so many gay people are afraid to be open. And we perpetuate the negativeness of this lable by using the term in a negative light. It may seem minor to a heterosexual male, but may have broad implications for someone else. so why use it?
