That's from the secret part of the Gay Agenda, iSm!! They weren't supposed to know about that!

At least nobody's leaked the truth about the DADT "Buggery Barracks"

Hahaha, kinda drunk ex-sailor at the protest last night: I love gay guys. They're were tons of gay guys in the Navy, and they were all alright. Ya know what they used to say? A ship goes out with 5,000 men, and comes back with 2,500 couples.


Isaac and I nearly lost our sh!t.

The most recent episode of South Park should be required watching for anyone following this thread (GC - I'm particularly looking at you)

The F Word

[innerSpaceman]

I happen to agree with the philosophy of that episode, though more than a few in the gay community are upset with it.

They point out if "Fag" were replaced with the word I can't even type on the LoT, the show would have been pulled. Perhaps, but it doesn't change the fact that word meanings can change. "That's so gay" and "Fag" may be firmly rooted in homo insults, but their meaning is evolving and queers needn't get their frilly panties in such a bunch about people using them to insult things that aren't homosexual.


Now that I'm no longer SGA, I'll likely go back to using, "That's so gay." And I only wish the Fag word could be successfully disarmed. That won't happen by continuing to take needless offense as it naturally evolves. It doesn't mean Harley Riders yet, but it's not just about homos anymore.

"You can be gay and not be a fag".

Pure coincidence that I clicked in this thread at this time.

I really liked that episode. It was severely funny.

"There's little flags stuck in the sh*t!"

I have no problem with this episode at all. South Park has demonstrated gay-friendly messages time and time again in previous episodes. I don't see a problem with them parodying LGBT people or issues.

I mean, Big Gay Al and Mr. Slave are married for crying out loud.

I don't see a problem with them trying to change the definition of the word "fag". I believe a lot of people (kids mostly) using the word and don't mean it to be derogatory towards gay people. With that being said, I oddly enough have a problem with people using "gay" to mean "lame". Especially when it's done so by someone who knows it bugs other people and are gay themselves.

I don't use either word unless I'm doing it to parody people who do. Which I guess that is why I have no problem with the South Park episode.

Also, (Ooh. Johnny Weismuller is on TCM in a loin cloth!) I think the gay rights organizations who are up in arms about this are lame. They should be focusing on why gay marriage initiatives are failing all over this country. They shouldn't be spending time skewering allies. I think it's only a matter of time before LGBT people and gay friendly folk are going to start questioning the effectiveness of these groups that have a lot of money and seemingly have very little power to change sh*t... with little flags stuck in them.
