What's with gay doodz referring to each other as "fags"

Why do some gay doodz through this around when so many other gay doodz are uncomfortable with the word?

George Carlin said it's not the word that's offensive, it's the intention behind it.
People of whatever class (or whatever you want to call it) that use the word, without some serious context, are just assumed to not be using it in a derogatory way. The reverse is also true for the most part, at least that certainly seems to be the case.
It's okay for them to say it (at least they feel that way) because it's "their word".
I've never seen a gay dude get upset with another one for saying that.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I have not much to say :shrugs:
I'm not sure why people do the things they do.
Maybe just to tease one another in a lighthearted way amongst themselves as friends.
Some people just love to talk shit.

Theyre just words.
Its not even about the person who speaks the words intentions, as much as it is the listeners perceptions.
People choose how they percieve any word they hear, whether directed at them or not.
If you let simple words, which the whole entire point of you may miss, persuade you into judgement of someone.... Then youre kinda being a fag.

I think this may be a millennial thing. I do not say that to any friends at all. I may joke with my husband at home very rarely, but yes, it's offensive to use the word. Like Vandago did. It implies a negative statement meaning that "fag" is a bad thing. It's quite simple really. And all the people trying to say "it's just a word" are not even aware of how bad it is. I do not like it and I will say so every single time.

That’s a bit ridiculous though.
Isn’t the argument that the word causes so much hurt that it should never be said in civil society?
Because if the argument is “it’s not the word, it’s the underlying meaning and context”, then I was never guilty of anything in the first place. If I ever called someone a f word, they were straight, to the best of my knowledge. So none of us meant offense when we replaced “lame” with gay or “douche bag” with “f word”.
But that’s not it, is it? It’s not ok to say the n word just because you don’t say it to a black guy or about black people. And it’s not ok to say faggot🤷🏻♂️ My snowflake views aside though, I do miss the words...was hard to replace lol

yes.
Tell you what, and anyone else inhere that wants to argue this. Why don't you just go up to any random black person or even an acquaintance or friend that's a person of color, and use the "N" word profusely any chance you get, see how that goes. Say something like, "don't be such a nigger" (sorry had to make a point) and see how that goes. Please post results.
It seems like the people who have pushed this agenda to "make the words acceptable" and "it's just a word, and we should use it until it's meaningless" blah blah blah, are really racist and fucking assholes that want to get away with talking shit.

It bothers me that you said "the n word" and then said "faggot" while trying to argue their equivalence but it'll bother me more if that was the edit to your post, to take out nigger

if you aren't into the whole clip, skip ahead to 5 minutes to the struggles of blacks and gays being similiar but not the same

T’was unintentional, I promise. The edit was actually adding the entire part you quoted. I’m at work, typing on my phone. Guess I should proofread anyway, considering the subject matter..
I guess not saying the n-word is just so ingrained in my psyche that I did it on autopilot. I’ll probably get there with the f word within a few years.
