queer is a slur. and its also the best word to describe non-straight people that's come along. lgbtqqip2saa doesn't exactly roll off the tongue

so "queer is a slur" going around again, and you know its weird, the single slur I heard most when I was growing up was "gay", as in "thats fuckin gay" which is said 197 times a day by every 14yo in north america, but now nobody says "gay is a slur, dont say it" for some reason

and you know what word I hate the most? "Homosexual". It's clinical and not overtly colorful or slanderous. on the surface it sounds fine. but it slips from the mouths of preachers like poison.

it's almost like slurs, just like any word, are only insulting if you use them in an insulting way
-
indeed. even so, there's certain slurs i detest and will never use myself, like f--t, and if someone else uses them a lot i tend to not want to listen

I just hate how often I have to correct family members to refer to me as bi. I don't know why nobody can get it right. Hell I was dating a busty girl 3 years ago between boyfriends.

People call bi guys gay and bi gals straight because they think attraction to women just doesn't count if you like men too. Can't for the life of me understand why.
