Default Re: Meaning of \'gay\'

[ QUOTE ]
Its how it is used in context.

If I am upset/mad and say "this is gay" then I am saying something is irritating me and it sucks.

If I say "he is gay" then I am referring to a man who is indeed a homosexual.

Well said. Today's society has a fascination for changing the meanings of words.
