Voids about 40% of your whole argument.
Why do you suggest that "****" has 'friendly' variations? I have a friend who was attacked for being gay, and the word used maliciously was "****". Furthermore, the 'n' word is used in rap songs with variations on maliciousness.
Also, why does looking like a 'gimp' equate to something homosexual?
Furthermore, explain to me how C4 promoted a negative stereotype?

It voids nothing. There are many other posts in this thread, and comparisons with the Emily incident have been made several times over. I chose to quote your post simply because it was the one I disagreed with the most.
Please don't put words in my mouth. The word actually means 'effeminate', so to draw a homosexual comparison from it is actually homophobic in itself. When did this 'attack' take place, exactly? Circa 1955? And Emily is not a rapper.
Again, please don't misquote me. The parallel was clearly drawn on the highlights show. If you don't recognise the stereotype, then I'm sure Google can help you.
See above.
