well i have something to talk about...have you guys seen the "thats so gay" commercials...its commercial talking about how saying "that is soo gay" is a bad thing...what do you think?

to be honest i dont think its as bad as they make it out to be...i mean from my perspective i guess its how you look at it and what your intention is when you say it..i use the word gay for all different definitions...good and bad...gay as in dorky..funny...or sometimes stupid...but that doesnt mean i think gays are bad..stupid or dorky...im assuming they are saying its bad because they think it makes gays feel bad..because it does say "what do you think you are saying...or how you think this makes other feel" to be honest im not against gays or anything and i know a lot of gays and lesbian people who are also my friends...they say its bad to use gay as a bad thing...but wouldnt that be the same as using gay for happy..even though thats what gay means...its a slang..i dont compare the word gay to gays everytime i use it...maybe other people do..but i never looked at it as that..just like how we say "postal" should workers and the post office feel offended? i dont know..in one of the commercials..hilary duff made a comment about saying saying gay is just like saying thats so "a girl wearing a skirt as a shirt"? to use that as a bad way because there was a girl wearing a skirt as a shirt...now that is totally different because we all know why hillary duff said it...it was to make a girl feel offensive..but if u look at it like its just a slang..is it really hurting anyone if in reality a girl wearing a skirt as a shirt wasnt a bad thing? do you get my drift...hmm i have thought now and then abt the issue but i always told myself in the end it wasnt bad because i didnt think of it as a bad thing..it was just a slang...maybe im just blinded..and im sorry if i do offend anyone i dont mean it...if i offend someone i know or someone who knows me...im sure they feel reassuring enough to bring it up to me because they know i wont be judgemental...i try not to be when im around people...so what do you think? what do you usually use the word gay for?

hmm i am asian...i guess if people were to say "you are soo chinky" that would kind of hurt but at the same time if it became a nation wide thing for a slang with good intentions i really dont know what i would think..i dont think i would mind...do i sound crazy now? idk maybe im thinking too much...its not that im against this commercial but idk if im ready to change something that i mean no harm just because people cant see the lightness to it or if i dont think its a bad thing and it really isnt meaning i dont mean any harm from it..but then again bad people could say the same thing...as well as ignorant people..because they cant see the error of their ways...gosh what do you think? But if people really do think its bad..let your voice be heard because you are not wrong in any way to say that it makes you feel bad.
