Everything about this is accurate
thats funny,how op is idiot can’t professional XD
Yeah, but to a lot of people, the logic is that you’re equating being unlikable or bad with being gay, hence using terms like “gay” or “faggot” as generic insults. Even if that’s not your intent, that is the implication that comes across, intended or otherwise.
Like, follow me here. If you don’t see being gay as a bad thing (and I believe you don’t), then it doesn’t make sense to use “gay” (or “fag” or “queer”, etc.) as generic insults for being unlikable, stupid, or lame.

I… Wow, okay then. I really don’t want to get into a discussion about this on a derpibooru comment section, as there are probably forums dedicated to this, but that seems kinda offensive.
I’m an american. I just call anyone who I dislike and get into an argument with online a “faggot”. Don’t even think about whether or not they’re gay.
Yeah, for me, I’ll laugh it off if it’s directed at me. But I tend to speak up and risk getting a little preachy if it’s directed at someone else.
I personally don’t mind it that much either. All depends on context, I guess. Like, some people use it in a teasing way and others use it in a mocking way. One doesn’t mean anything bad with it, the other does. But then again, I’m bi, leaning more to gay so I’m in a similiar situation I suppose.
Honestly, I’m in a weird place with the word faggot.
It doesn’t personally offend me as a bisexual, and I can easily laugh it off and not really care if it’s directed at me, but I don’t like the way it hurts other people. So it’s less that I have a thin skin about people insulting me for my sexuality, and more that I have empathy for people for whom words like this do hurt. Like LGBT students who face bullying, and maybe aren’t confident enough to stand up for themselves or just shrug it off like I could, that sort of thing.
I dunno, that’s kinda where I stand on the whole issue.

As a bisexual, I’m only gay as fu.
