We shall see if they are any better.Ken Richeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425810816600512504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3425569396822162863.post-79761240156675315182011-10-06T16:03:27.587-04:002011-10-06T16:03:27.587-04:00I think the only time I've ever uttered the &q...I think the only time I've ever uttered the "n-word" is while rapping along to songs. Otherwise, it's an ugly word in vocabulary, just as the "c-word" to a woman. There is no power or strength in it, just pure meanness and ugliness. I understand that in the black community it's used in a different context; however that gives me ZERO right to use it back. <br /><br />About 2 weeks ago, I was with my very outwardly gay friend Damon (him and I go to church together as well). He was explaining how his friend Jaymes said "you(Damon) are too gay". Granted Damon is a little flammin', Jaymes does actual drag work. Damon asked me my opinion and I said something and used the word faggot. I couldn't even believe I said it and immediately apologized. Damon didn't find any offense in it whatsoever and said, "He is what he is and he's very much a fag." Maybe b/c I'm his fag hag he didn't care? Otherwise I was embarrassed to even use that word. :/SweetAngelAsh17https://www.blogger.com/profile/04465490503393179376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3425569396822162863.post-33778884806622867592011-10-06T14:33:54.952-04:002011-10-06T14:33:54.952-04:00The "n-word" is kind of like the word &q...The "n-word" is kind of like the word "smurf." It has no independent meaning of it's own, it's meaning is entirely dependent on context: who said it, and why.<br /><br />When Rick Perry smurfs it, it's completely smurf from when Snoop Dogg smurfs it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3425569396822162863.post-72503961350069924342011-10-06T07:45:03.238-04:002011-10-06T07:45:03.238-04:00The younger gays have followed the example and use...The younger gays have followed the example and used "queer" as THEIR word. I don't use it, but I like the idea of taking the hate out of a word and making it your own.Toonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02867993460493875221noreply@blogger.com
