I said "gay" a lot until I got to be really close friends with a gay guy I worked with at my last job. He moved into the same apartment building I live in and started hanging out with me and my straight, ex-frat friends a lot and on more than one occasion I saw his crestfallen expression after someone carelessly threw the word around. I'm very careful not to use "gay" anymore- but I would definitely never judge someone for using it.
