oh
mixed, i take it on faith that you can strut your slut with the best of them. i think you might make me soil myself if i ever heard you say that
in fact, although it might be a little threadjackey, but tralgon and doe were best friends and sort of fucked up in a way. tralgon had recently come out as bi (he's now full fledged gay i think) and
i think doe was originally trying to hook me up with him, or they were scouting for a 3-way. i've got pierced ears and carry a purse sometimes, so its an understandable guess. it ended up that i only wanted to get frisky with her; it's entirely possible that tralgon was a little pissed that i went for doe at all. he's a good guy, but he does have a little bit of the stereotypical catty gay guy thing going on.
(back to thread) so it might not have been entirely friendly, as all good friends do, they had conversations with barbs in them.
regardless, i'm just saying that sometimes the word is appropriate, and i don't think it quite carries the kind of offensive status as something like 'nigger' or 'spic' or the like. frankly, i'm still a little bit miffed that i can't say 'fag' or 'gay' anymore. damn it, i grew up in the 80's!
so i'm keeping slut, but being selective about how i use it.
