A question?

Just lipstick on a pig, i guess…
Wikipedia:
Since its emergence in the English language in the 16th century (related to the German quer, meaning “across, at right angle, diagonally or transverse"), queer has generally meant “strange”, “unusual”, or “out of alignment”. It might refer to something suspicious or “not quite right”, or to a person with mild derangement or who exhibits socially inappropriate behaviour.
Hope this helps Chris.Frankly I can see the correlation to homos myself. They seem to think it’s a slight but as a hetero I think its actually quite accurate in the proper use of the word.
Exactly KJM. They stole the word and use reverse projection.
The nastiest, most bitter, caustic people I know are homosexual men; the worst ones are those who are over 35 and don’t have a permanent partner.
I used to know a lot of ‘gay’ guys when I worked for Arthur Murray. I say ‘used to’ because every single one of them have since died of AIDS. Well, one is still around, but his ‘significant other’ is long gone. The good part was that so many of the guys were gay I pretty much had the ladies for myself. Don’t tell my wife. Wait, she was one of the ladies…
Think I’ll now go watch some old Flintstones cartoons. Seem they were having a ‘gay old time’ back when I was a kid.
I’ve never understood either - If homosexuals are “gay” does that mean I’m morose?
The one gay guy who’s still with us was hilarious. We were at a weekend dance camp and, as you might expect, our private parties were getting seriously adult-oriented. Two of the girls latched onto him. I don’t think they got anywhere with him, but I do remember him yelling ‘I’m gay! I’m gay!’
I was… how to put this? Otherwise distracted? So I don’t know if they converted him. As I said, most of the males were gay… only time I had three women. Needless to say, I had a fairly demanding evening. THAT my wife doesn’t know about. Don’t tell her.
Perhaps those two girls who latched onto teh ghey fellow should’ve gone down on him like Kathy Griffin did to Anderson Cooper!
Hmmm. I’ve no idea of who Kathy is. I thought Cooper is gay? Am I wrong?
Who, “ma boo”? Oh hella yeah, gay as gay can be. Not like everyone hasn’t known for ages. But he finally “came out” late last year.
And if you don’t know Kathy Griffin ... good. She’s a comedian of about the style and skill as Roseann Barr. Except she’s this aging skinny redhead. And her big following is among the bitchy gays. She filled in for Dick Clark on New Year’s, and “as a joke” tried to blow Anderson C on live TV. No actual insertion, but she kept kneeling in front of him and mouthing over his pants. Real classy lady, yah sure!
I am old enough to remember Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble lighting up Winston’s and saying “Winston tastes good like a cigarette should”. By today’s standards is that queer or gay? I can imagine the outcry if Picachu fired up a Marlboro some Saturday morning.
I can remember when Saturday Morning was a top 40 hit too. Damn :(.I object to these people hiding behind this adjective, most are not more cheerful than any of us but often more brightly coloured, and let us look at the term “gay pride” its an oxymoron they are so proud that they hide behind a meaningless name?? and if they are so content with their homosexual lives why, pray tell, do they yearn for membership of the biblical heterosexual club of matrimony?

Roseann Barr has skill? I’m learning new stuff all the time!
