'That's so gay'
Offensive or not?
Whilst I PERSONALLY don't get offended by it, because i know as most people say it, their not going 'BEING HOMOSEXUAL IS BAD, SO THAT'S WHY I'M SAYING IT', I can see why some people would get offended.
It probably originated from what i said above and then just grew as a 'thing to say' without anyone actually knowing the meaning behind it.
It is wrong because if your going 'that's gay' at something that you don't want to do, then it is seemed as bad.
I've asked my friends this and they said they've just grown up saying it, and how it 'rolls off the tongue'.
Its not a valid reason to say something - but i think if people actually thought about saying it and the meaning that can come across to certain people as they say it that it wouldn't be said.
Thoughts?
