Homosexual (members, quote, Hang)

Trauma · 07-28-2006, 11:02 PM

Alright, this is going to be a poll.
I have no clue if this has been done before but I'm a little angry that the censor on the word gay has not been lifted yet.
It's understood that the word gay can also be used as an insult, but that just represents the homophobia and limited vocabulary of others.
Seriously, when new people come to this site and ask, "Why is the word gay censored" it makes me feel strange.
IMO it sets an example that the members on this site are a little immature and not to mention homophobic if they use that word as an insult.
So, vote yes or no on the poll.
Please don't close this mods.
This is serious.

Nothing we can do, its auto-censored. Alejo told me before. I'm closing it, because no matter what you think on it, it can't be helped.

This has been the two most wonderful days of my life.
First my boyfriend does. . . some rather interesting things.
and now there's a thread re opened because of me.
I feel like I should cry.

At any rate, I think g(a)y should be uncensored because it's discriminatory.
And if it can't be uncensored then I think there's something wrong with the people that made that decision and didn't let me have the final say so.
