Please stop calling gay men 'homosexuals'.
This is an antiquated Victorian term - made all the more embarrassing when your presenter can't even pronounce it.
good day

It's not that it's old-fashioned so much as that it's so clinical sounding.
ReplyDeleteBut if you don't like "homosexual", what about "homophobia"?
Should we change that to "gayphobia", eh? EH??
You can't have your cock and eat it.
Dear Fagburn,
ReplyDeletePlease stop speaking on behalf of the gays
This is an antiquated stale argument - made all the more embarrassing for you in light of the fact the presenter was just repeating the same term the interviewee chose to label himself! Comprehension fail, much?
Get a grip
A friend.

PS I am homosexual or gay, it matters not a fuck (But NOT twee eldergay attempts at humour such as "bumder" or"gayer")
PPS Talk about hysteric!
FFS!!!!! etc
Yes, I don't know who appointed you to be arbiter of the correct terminology for the gays, but I have never heard of you. Nor do you seem to represent anyone but yourself.

I now have this image of Charles Dance as Lord Wolfenden in that splendid 2007 drama 'Consenting Adults', criticising Sir Maxwell Fyfe pronunciation of homosexual as if it came from just Latin, instead of Latin and Greek.
ReplyDeleteTotally clinical and sad - gay sounds more fun!
