"Thats so gay"

This is a frequently said phrase by a lot of teens, pre-teens and even younger kids, and a lot of adults actually... some Gay folks get very offended by this phrase, I personally don't, but then again, it takes a LOT to offend me, I just think to myself when people say this that either their Momma didn't teach them any better, or they just aren't thinking about what they are saying, more than likely they are not saying it to be mean, it is just something that is said so much that people pick it up... However... There are some Gay Folks that are very offended by this phrase... Now, when I hear somebody say "that's so gay" I usually say "That so Straight" and it get the point across and we usually laugh... it has had some of the desired results and the amount of times I have heard the phrase has reduced dramatically :)

NOW... I recently read a blog by a guy I went to high school with, also Gay, funny as all hell, and his approach on the "That's so Gay" is way better than mine, I don't see it actually working, but I really like the idea, sorry Hopper, but I am rewriting about your idea here cause it merits mention... Here is his idea: Anytime somebody says "That so Gay" you go over and start kissing them, like seriously making out with them, LMAO... So eventually straight people will think that when somebody says "That so Gay" it is a Gay persons mating call... I like that idea... his blog was way more detailed than what I just wrote, he even had an outline for a commercial, it was funny as hell... and if we could get that into circulation, (the idea that "that's so gay" is the gay folks mating call) then I bet the phrase would slowly be phased out... could you see the teenage boys sitting around and one of them says "That so gay" and the other one jumps and says "OMG, don't say that... its the mating call of the gays" it wouldn't take long.... Thanks for the funny Hopper :p
