Ah Yes ...Let's Allow OTHERS to Define Us ...the Language of Who Is Oppressing Whom

Good grief

Can I call myself a HOMOsexual?
Can I call myself a Queer or a Fag?
God knows I wish I was young enough to call myself a Twink!

Pretty much every word in a gay man’s arsenal can, and will, be used in a derogatory manner at some point. Think Joey on friends being able to make any word sexual – well, gay men can turn any word catty.

And THAT is POWER.

LOL.

He would get called derogatory names and he would look straight them and say, "Yes I ammmmm". Then blow them a kiss.

We would all laugh at whoever did it because they just got punked by him.
