Internet use of the term "gay"
why is it that the end-all and be-all argument is "you're gay," or "you fag." usenet is particularly guilty of this, and i used to see it here a lot. this bigotry annoys the shit out of me. then again, i'm a new yorker so i have first hand experience that gay is not a particularly nasty thing to be called. oh gee, you just called me muscular with a keen fashion sense.
anyway, i think it's way-too-widely accepted and i'm wondering why people think it is that way.
